X-(-3)=-5
You must first start by getting X by itself. In order to do this, you must subtract -3.
X+3=-5 Whenever I solve a problem with subtracting a negative, I change my signs, because whenever you subtract a negative, you're really adding.
X+3-3=-5-3 You now must isolate the X. You start by subtracting 3 from each side.
X=-5-3 The 3's with the X are now gone, and you just do basic math now.
X=-8
