Below are the steps to solve an equation:

Step 1: |x − 5| + 2 = 5
Step 2: |x − 5| = 5 − 2
Step 3: |x − 5| = 3

Which of the following is a correct next step to solve the equation?



A x + 5 = −3
B −x − 5 = 3
C x − 5 = −3
D x + 5 = 3

Respuesta :

The answer should be B) -x - 5 = 3

First you subtract 2 from both sides, then subtract 5 - 2 to get 3, and lastly you break down the equation into two problems and one of them is -x - 5 = 3.
