Answer 2

Option C.

Explanation:

The given equation is

`-(5)/(2)(x)-5=-55`

We need to find the value of x.

Add 5 on both sides.

`-(5)/(2)(x)-5+5=-55+5`

`-(5)/(2)(x)=-50`

Multiply both sides by 2.

`-5x=-100`

Divide both sides by -5.

`x=(-100)/(-5)`

`x=20`

Therefore, the correct option is C.
