Final answer:

When x=2, the value of the expression -8x+5-2x-4+5x is -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate the expression -8x+5-2x-4+5x when x=2, we substitute x=2 into the expression.

First, we combine like terms:

-8x+5-2x-4+5x = (-8+5-2+5)x+(-4) = (0)x+(-4) = -4.

Therefore, the value of the expression is -4.
