___ + 5 = 0 -3 + ___ = negative number ___ - 2 = negative number

Answer 1

To solve the equations given in your question, we’ll find the missing numbers step by step.

1. **___ + 5 = 0**
To solve for the missing number (let's call it x):
\( x + 5 = 0 \)
To find x, subtract 5 from both sides:
\( x = -5 \)

2. **-3 + ___ = negative number**
When we add some number (let's call it y) to -3, we want the result to be negative.
Let's analyze:
\(-3 + y < 0\)
Adding a number less than 3 to -3 will give us a negative number. Therefore, y must be:
\(y < 3\)

3. **___ - 2 = negative number**
We want to find a number (let's call it z) such that:
\( z - 2 < 0 \)
Rearranging gives us:
\( z < 2 \)

### Summary of Results:
- For the first equation: **-5**
- For the second equation: Any integer **less than 3** (like -2, -1, 0, 1, or 2)
- For the third equation: Any integer **less than 2** (like -3, -2, -1, 0, or 1)

### Final Responses:
- For the first blank: **-5**
- For the second blank: Any integer **less than 3** (like -2)
- For the third blank: Any integer **less than 2** (like -3)

You can fill in with those responses accordingly based on the given inputs.
