The answer is -3. Now imagine a line of numbers from -4 to +4. Your first number in that line would be +2. From there you would be moving to the left since you're taking numbers away and in this case you're taking away +5. So when you're going on that line from +2 tho the left by +5 it gets you to -3. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say:D I also included the photo of that "line".
