Answer:

solution: x = -8

Step by step:

1) 5x-5+5 = -45+5 : Add 5 to both sides

2) 5x= -40 : Simplify

3) 5x/5 = -40/5 : Divide both sides

<h3>Answer: addition property of inequality</h3>

================================================

Explanation:

These are the steps to focus on

step 3: -6x - 8 < -2

step 4: -6x < 6

The move from the third step to the fourth step has us adding 8 to both sides. Therefore, we use the addition property of inequality.

That property has four forms

If $a > b$ then $a + c > b+c$
If $a < b$ then $a+c < b+c$
If $a \ge b$ then $a + c \ge b+c$
If $a \le b$ then $a+c \le b+c$

It's similar to the idea of starting with a = b, then adding c to both sides to get a+c = b+c

We add the same thing to both sides to keep things balanced.
