Question

solve for x

Answer 1

-(-(-)(-)(-10x))=-5

-(-(-)10x) =-5

-(10x)=-5

-10x =-5

x=5/10

x=1/2

 

 

Answer 2

Since you have an odd number of negative signs on the left side of the equation already, the left simplifies to -10x.  Then, you have 

 

-10x = -5

     x = 1/2

Answer 3

 
-(-(-)(-)(-10x))=-5

 

-(-(-10x))=-5

 

-(10x)=-5

 

10x=5

 

x=2
