To solve the equation, we need to find the number that, when added to -5, equals positive 6.
To isolate the unknown, we can rearrange the equation by subtracting -5 from both sides:
-5 + x = 6
Next, to get the value of x, we add 5 to both sides:
(-5 + x) + 5 = 6 + 5
This simplifies to:
x + 0 = 11
Therefore, x = 11.
So, -5 + 11 = 6.
-5 + what = positive 6
