Answer:

  • x < - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

  • 5 + x = n

If n is negative then we get:

  • n < 0 or
  • 5 + x < 0
  • x < - 5

If n is negative then x is less than - 5.

Example:

  • x = - 6 ⇒ 5 + (-6) = 5 - 6 = - 1  ⇒ -1 < 0

Answer:

x < -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Now the value of x is,

→ 5 + x = n

→ x = n - 5

The value of n when negative,

→ n < 0 ---- {n = 0}

When n is a negative number,

→ x < 0 - 5

→ [ x < -5 ]

Hence, the answer is x < -5.
