When there are equal forces from opposite directions acting on an object, the forces are said to be which of the following?

Positive
Negative
Balanced
Gravitational

Balanced

Explanation:

Equal forces acting in opposite directions are called balanced forces. Balanced forces acting on an object will not change the object's motion. When you add equal forces in opposite direction, the net force is zero.

for this case we have the following equation:

we apply distributive property to the terms within parentheses.

subtracting 2 on both sides of the equation:
