Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the unknown number.

According to the information provided in the exercise, 10 is the result of the subtraction of "x" and -5.

Based on this, you can write the following equation:

x-(-5)=10

To find the value of "x" you must remember the multiplication of signs:

(+)(+)=+\n(-)(-)=+\n(-)(+)=-

Then:

x-(-5)=10\n\nx+5=10

Finally, subtracting 5 from both sides of the equation, you get:

x+5-(5)=10-(5)\n\nx=5

Answer 2
