Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(x + 9 ) = -5
-5*x + (-5) * 9 = -5
-5x - 45 = -5 {Add 45 to both the sides}
-5x - 45 + 45 = - 5 +45
-5x + 0 = 40
-5x = 40 {Divide both sides by (-5)
-5x/-5 = 40/-5
x = -8
Answer:
-5x+(-45)=-5
-5x=40
x=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
you multiply everything inside the parenthesis by the -5
then you move the -45 to the other side since the -5 is there
Next you divide by x=-8
