Prob.2: 5x=50
Answered by Ms. Sue
-14=2x+2x-2

-14 + 2 = 4x

-12 = 4x

-3 = x

I'll be glad to check your answer to problem 2.

Answered by cheyenne
Ms.Sue I worked on it and I got x=-45, am I correct?
Answered by Ms. Sue
No.

The problem says that 5 times some number is 50.

5 times 45 is NOT 50.

Divide both sides of the equation by 5.
