X-(-5) = -23
X=
Answer here

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -28

Step-by-step explanation:

x-(-5) = -23

Subtracting a negative is adding

x+5 = -23

Subtract 5 from each side

x+5-5 = -23-5

x = -28

look at photo

large crystals result from very slow cooling.

evaporation of water: this would produce an evaporite which is a sedimentary rock. like a salt pan in a desert. not possible to have volcanic rocks originate this way.

crystalization in molten earth: slow cooling over time. (hundreds to millions of years)

crystalization at earth's surface: this results in fast cooling. (a few hours to a few months or years)

crystalization from cooling off hot water: that would be a hydrothermal deposit. while associated with volcanics they are not volcanic rocks themselves and usually occur fairly rapidly.
