Solve for x. 1 (x-2) = -5.5

x is -3.5

1 (x - 2) = -5.5

Remove the brackets by dividing both sides by 1:

(x - 2) / 1 = -5.5 / 1

x - 2 = -5.5

Take -2 to the other side so that you can be left with x. When you do this, the sign will change from negative to positive:

x = -5.5 + 2

x = -3.5

x is therefore -3.5
