Answer:

the answer is -11 sir

Step-by-step explanation:    Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

5+x−2=−8

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5+x−2=−8

5+x+−2=−8

(x)+(5+−2)=−8(Combine Like Terms)

x+3=−8

x+3=−8

Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.

x+3−3=−8−3

x=−11

Hailey is 2 years younger than her sister. If Hailey is h years old, which equation represents the age of her sister, s?
butalik [34]

Answer:

S=H+2

Step-by-step explanation:

OK, so hailey is the variable H. And she is 2 years younger than her sister.

What is the age of her sister?

So we know it has to be, hailey's age + something? = age of her sister.

what is that +something? it's the number "2 years younger" so hailey's age; which is h, plus 2 is equal to her sister's age.

H+2=S

OK, why do we need to add 2? instead of minus two? Because hailey is 2 years younger than her sister, so you want hailey's age. If you were to minus 2, you'd be thinking that hailey is OLDER than her sister. Because if you want to her sister's age, you would have to SUBTRACT 2 because you are OLDER than her. So if you are younger than the sister, you would add to get your sister's age.
