if x+36=-40 then what is x equal to? please include steps if possible.
x+36=-40
You need to move over 36 to get x alone so you subtract 36 from both sides. You get x=-76
THE ANSWER- x=76
REMEMBER- Anything you do to one side you need to do to the other.
SORRY!!!!! I meant x=-76
x+36=-40 subtract 36 from both sides
x = -40 - 36
x = - 76
