What is the solution to the equation x+2=-1?

1
2
-1
-3

The correct answer is: -3

The solution to this equation can be found by isolating the variable x on one side of the equation. In this case, we need to move the constant 2 to the other side by subtracting it from both sides. This will give us x = -1 -2, which simplifies to x = -3. Option A and B are incorrect because they do not result in the correct value of x when plugged into the equation. Option C is also incorrect because it only represents -1 and does not take into account the additional 2 that is part of the original equation. Therefore, the solution to this equation is x = -3.
