Im having a hard time on this question and i hope you can . yuto solved the equation below. -2(x+5)=-2(x-2)+5 what is the solution to yuto’s equation?

The answer would be x ≠ 0

First start with the left side, doing distributive property

So... -2(x) = -2x and -2(5) = -10 Therefore on the left side you now have -2x -10

Next do the same on the right side

-2(x) = - 2x and -2(-2) = 4 so you have -2x + 4 + 5 and you add 4 and 5, leaving you with -2x + 9

Now that you have simplified both sides the problem now looks like this:

-2x - 10 = -2x + 9

Because you have equal terms on both sides (-2) those cancel out so you have -10 = 9

Just from looking at this we know that the statement is false because -1o does not equal 9

*The symbol, "≠" means not equal to"

your answer would be x≠ 0

oof
