Answer 2

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. Rearrange terms

8 − 5 = 2 + 2 0 − 5 + 8 = 2 + 2 0

1. Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation
2. − 5 + 8 = 2 + 2 0 − 5 + 8 − 8 = 2 + 2 0 − 8

1. Simplify
2. Subtract the numbers

− 5 = 2 + 1 2

1. Subtract 2 2x 2x from both sides of the equation
2. − 5 = 2 + 1 2 − 5 − 2 = 2 + 1 2 − 2x

1. Simplify
2. Combine like terms

− 7 = 1 2

1. Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

− 7 = 1 2 − 7 − 7 = 1 2 − 7

1. Simplify Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator Divide the numbers

= − 1 2 7
