(x-2)5=x I call this just following the bouncing ball, an old time reference to an old sing along show that was on TV. Just write your equation based on exactly what is said. X is your number. Subtract 2 multiply by 500/100 and that is equal to the original number which is x. Then all you need to do is solve for x. Just follow the words to write your equation. (Follow the bouncing ball)
