Solve for x.

−3(x+5)=−9

x would be 1

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide by -3 and solve for x

−3(x+5)/-3=−9/-3

x+5=3

x=3-5

x=-2

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

∠cbe and ∠deb are same-side interior angles.
