Answer 2

yea

Answer 3

-9-7=-16
Add 16 to both side of the equation, then divide both sides by -5.

Answer 4

so what would be the final answer than?

Answer 5

\[-5\sqrt{x}-16=23\]\[-5\sqrt{x}=39\]

Answer 6

Answer 7

-5?

Answer 8

How did you get that?

Answer 9

im not sure could you just tell me the answer and than well solve it and see how you got it?
