Question

What does x equal in this equation

Answer 1

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to subtract 8 from both sides.

-5x+8=-2

-8 -8

----------------

-5x= -10

now divide both sides by -5.

x=-10/-5

(And two negatives make a positive.)

x=10/5

now you have to simplify 10/5

10/5 simplified is 2

so the answer is:

x=2

I hope this helps. :)
