To solve for S, we can multiply both sides by -1 to get rid of the negative sign on the left side: 
$$-S=22 \implies (-1)(-S)=(-1)(22) \implies S=-22$$
Therefore, the correct answer is choice C: $S=-22$

Solve the Equation −S=22- S = 22−S=22 A) S=−21S = - 21S=−21

Solve the Equation $- S = 22$ A) $S = - 21$
