Question

What is the solution to the following equation?
-3+x=-8
A. X-11
OB. x=-11
OC. x=5
D. x=-5

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-3+x = -8

Add 3 to each side to isolate x

-3+x+3 = -8+3

x = -5

Answer 2

Separate X by moving -3 to other side
X=-8+3
Then solve
-8+3=-5
X=-5
