Answer 1

Answer: x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation we are given is 2.5x+10=x-0.5. We can use out algebraic properties to solve for x.

2.5x+10=x-0.5       [move like terms into one side by adding and subtracting]

2.5x-x=-0.5-10       [combine like terms]

1.5x=-10.5              [divide both sides by 1.5]

x=-7
