\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}\left(-5\right)+2
Use the distributive property to multiply \frac{1}{2} by x-5.
\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{-5}{2}+2
Multiply \frac{1}{2} and -5 to get \frac{-5}{2}.
\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{5}{2}+2
Fraction \frac{-5}{2} can be rewritten as -\frac{5}{2} by extracting the negative sign.
\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{5}{2}+\frac{4}{2}
Convert 2 to fraction \frac{4}{2}.
\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{-5+4}{2}
Since -\frac{5}{2} and \frac{4}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}
Add -5 and 4 to get -1.
