Given : A (2,-2) and B(-1,x) and Distance b/w these two is 5

according to distance formula

(x2-x1)2 + (y2-y1)2 = d2

=> (-1-2)2 + (x+2)2 = 25

=> 9 + x2 + 4 +4x = 25

=> x2 + 4x - 12 = 0

=> x2 + 6x -2x - 12 = 0

=> x (x+6) -2(x+6) = 0 

=> (x+6) (x-2) = 0

either x + 6 = 0 or x-2=0

so x = -6, 2
