x>−15

Answer:

x>−15

Answer 2

Answer:

x>-15 would be the answer!

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equality −x + 5< 20, you want x to be by its self. First of all, you'll subtract 5 on both sides so now you will have -x<15. Now, you must get rid of the negative so divide -1 to both sides. Oh, looks like you will have to flip the symbol since you're dividing a negative. In the end, you'll have an answer of x>-15.
