To solve the equation -5x + 2 = 67, we first need to isolate the variable x.
We can start by subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation:
-5x + 2 - 2 = 67 - 2
-5x = 65
Next, to solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by -5:
-5x / -5 = 65 / -5
x = -13
Therefore, the solution to the equation -5x + 2 = 67 is x = -13.
-5 x + 2 = 67
