Solve for x: 5 − (x + 5) > −2(x + 4) (1 point) x > −8 x < −8 x > −18 x < −18

To find the answer, you do these steps.

1) Simplify the brackets.
5 - x - 5 > -2(x + 4)

2) Put 5 - x - 5 as -x

-x > -2(x + 4)

3) Solve x + 4

-x > -2x - 8

4) Add 2x to both sides of equation.

-x + 2x > -8

5) Do -x + 2x to x

x > -8

Your answer is A.

Hope this helps! ☺♥

5 - x - 5 > - 2(x + 4)
-x > -2(x + 4)
-x > -2x - 8
-x + 2x > -8
x > -8

A)

That they are numbers and related to each other.

than do 23.50 times 18 and then divide your answer by 100 than you will get x.
