snowflake0531:

@ person who asked the question do you know how to subtract or add like terms in an equation like this to each side?

xsupremeaidenx:

that off the -5 ?

jhonyy9:

add to both sides 5 so what will get ?

snowflake0531:

yes 'that off the -5' lmao

xsupremeaidenx:

take****

snowflake0531:

so, as jhonyy9 said ^^^^ add five to each side... what would it be -2x-5 + 5 = 5 +5

xsupremeaidenx:

-7x - -10?

xsupremeaidenx:

Oh oops

snowflake0531:

first, -2x -5 + 5 what would that be

xsupremeaidenx:

8

xsupremeaidenx:

i dont know bro my teacher just gave us this today

xsupremeaidenx:

nd she isnt even there today

snowflake0531:

-2 XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX -5 + 5 here, only -5 and 5 are like terms, because -2x has an x in it so, you would do -2x - 5 + = -2x because the -5 and 5 cancels out

zunairah:

i kniw the answer

snowflake0531:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @xsupremeaidenx nd she isnt even there today \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) my math teacher is only there twice a week....

@Laylalyssa

snowflake0531:

@ person who asked this so, the left side would only result in -2x get that? maybe? no? yes? ish?

Laylalyssa:

snowflake, do u think u got this one?

xsupremeaidenx:

Ehhhhhhh

jhonyy9:

-2x-5 = 5 add to both sides 5 what result ?

xsupremeaidenx:

Bruh i got it thank u tho

jhonyy9:

-2x-5+5 = 5+5

Laylalyssa:

-2x=10

jhonyy9:

yes and now divide both sides by -2

zunairah:

negative 5

Laylalyssa:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @zunairah negative 5 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) good job

zunairah:

too easy

jhonyy9:

-2x = 10 /(-2) x = -5

R3al:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @zunairah negative 5 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) Great job
