Do you have any options to choose from if so what are the options?
First, replace the “?” with an x:
x - 2x - 5 = 5
Next, combine alike terms:
[ x - 2x ] - 5 = 5
^ alike terms
This will result in:
-x - 5 = 5
You do the inverse (opposite) of -5
-x -5 = 5
+5
Once you do the plus 5, the five moves to the end of the equation:
-x - 5 = 5 + 5
+5>>>>>^
The “-5” no longer exists because you canceled it with the “+5” that you moved to the other side.
The new equation:
-x = [5 + 5]
^ you add these two
After adding you get:
-x = 10
When putting “x” into a number it will ALWAYS be 1.
You then divide both sides by the “x” (which is -1 since it it always equal to one but is negative because it has a negative sign on it)
Your new equation:
-x / -1 = 10 / -1
If you divide to negatives, this will result in a positive.
You’re left with:
-x / -1 = x (since two negatives become a positive result)
10 / -1 = 10 (if there’s a negative and positive when dividing, it will automatically become negative) [ONLY FOR DIVISION]
At the end you’re left with:
x = -10

Answer:
Solutions of the given equations is (-3,2).
Step-by-step explanation:
Here the equations given are y = -x²-6x-7------(1)
and y = 2---------(2)
Now we substitute the value of y from equation (2) into (1)
2 = -x²-6x-7
x²+6x+7 = -2
x²+6x+7+2 = 2-2
x²+6x+9 = 0
x²+3x+3x+9 = 0
x(x+3)+3(x+3) = 0
(x+3)(x+3) = 0
therefore value of x is x = -3
Therefore the solution is (-3,2).
Your answer will be the third option.
