This is how I learned:
-2 + 5x = 13
5x + -2 + 2 = 13 + 2
5x = 15
-- --
5 5
x = 3
Then check:
-2 + 5 x 3 = ?
-2 + 15 = ?
13 =13
This is because when you add and subtract integers, adding negative is subtracting.
Subtracting negatives is like adding, but the result is negative. So, when you take
-2 + 2 it equals 0.
