Question

5x+2=-4

Answer 1

@s3a this is the problem tho. If you don't teach them, then they can't do the next one. Or maybe they are just too lazy to try

Answer 2

5x=-4-2
5x=-6
x=-6/5

Answer 3

@ChmE, I understand that that logic is best for those who are too lazy to try as well as for those trying to cheat, but I would rather not assume the worst in people, because I would rather better help someone who cares, even if it means having those who don't care get their answer and call it a day.

By the way, I never just give answers; I give fully-detailed solutions.

Also, most people assume that *I* am lazy and just want to cheat, and I hate when people treat me that way, so I don't treat them that way either.
