Hello!

Answer:

D. No solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you divide by -5 from both sides of an equation.

[tex]\frac{-5|x+1|}{-5}=\frac{10}{-5}[/tex]

[tex]|x+1|[/tex]

[tex]10/-5=-2[/tex]

[tex]|x+1|=-2[/tex]

Therefore, there are no solution.

Hope this helps!

Have nice day! :)

Thank you!

Answer:

D. No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

-5|x + 1| = 10

Divide each side by -5

-5/-5|x + 1| = 10/-5

|x + 1| = -2

An absolute value must be 0 or positive

This one is negative so there is no solution
