Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
−2(x+9)=−1(x+−1)+2
Use distributive property
-2x - 18 = -1x + 1 +2
-2x - 18 = -1x + 3
+18 +18
-2x = -1x +21
+1x +1x
___________
-x = 21
we need to have a positive x so multiply x by -1. -x times -1 = x
What we do on the left side has to happen to the right side too
So, 21 times -1 = -21
Therefore, x = -21
Hope this helps :)
