Choose the answer based on the most efficient method as presented in the lesson.
If the first step in the solution of the equation -8 - 7x = -5x - 10 is "add 10," then what should the next step be?
Since you’ve added the 10 to both sides you should now have -2-7x= -5x so next you’d want to add the 7x to both sides. This gets you -2=2x now all you have to do is divide both sides by positive 2. -1=x would be your answer. Hope this makes sense.
