Can a temperature of −10 degrees be described as “Negative ten degrees below zero?”

A) Yes, because “below zero” means that the temperature is positive.
B) Yes, because “below zero” means that the temperature is negative.
C) No, because “below zero” means that the temperature is positive.
D) No, because “below zero” means that the temperature is negative.

 D) No, because “below zero” means that the temperature is negative.

Step-by-step explanation: 10 degrees below zero means it is -10, so negative 10 degrees below zero is two negatives and wouldn't make sense

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
