Steps Problem Solution

1

Simplify the equation

\$ -1(x-a)=-5 \$

2

Given equation

\$ -1(x-a)=-5 \$

3

Dividing on both sides of the equation by "-1" we get

\$ (-1(x-a))/-1=-5/-1 \$

4

After cancellation we get

\$ x-a=5 \$

5

Adding "+a" on both sides of the equation

\$ x-a+a=5+a \$

6

After cancellation we get

\$ x=5+a \$

7

Hence the solution of the given equation is

\$ x=5+a \$
