D

Answer 4

Do you have any idea on how to start this off?

Here is a hint:
When moving anything over the equal sign it becomes the opposite of what it was.

\[-x + -58 = -20\]
Move the \(-20\) over the equal sign: (The \(20\) becomes positive.)
\[-x + -58 + 20 = 0\]

Now move the \(-x\) to the other side.
