Answer: "B. -5"
Explanation:
STEP 1: Plug -5 into the equation where "X" currently is; 10 (-5) - 5 = -55
STEP 2: Multiply 10 (-5) [-50].
STEP 3: Update the equation to reflect Step 2; -50 - 5 = -55
STEP 4: Subtract 5 from -50 [-55].
STEP 5: Update the equation to reflect Step 4; -55 = -55
It is true that -55 = -55, so, therefore, the answer is "B. -5."
