To find out how many chores Hunter has left to do, you subtract the number of chores he has completed from the total chores he had at the beginning of the week.
Hunter had 12 chores and finished 5, so the calculation is: 12 - 5 = 7 chores left.
Now, we need to identify which equations show how to make 10 to solve the problem.
Among the options provided, the relevant equations are:
5 + 5 = 10, 10 + 2 = 12
This equation starts from 5, which could represent the chores Hunter has finished, adds 5 to make 10 (though it's not directly linked), and then could be used in a subsequent step to reach the total of 12 chores.
So, you would select the last option:
5 + 5 = 10, 10 + 2 = 12
