Question

Below are two equations. Solve each equation and compare the two solutions. Choose the statement that is true about each solution.
Equation #1 Equation #2
5x − 2x = 2x + 2 5x + 2 = 2x − 10

The solution to equation #1 is smaller than the solution to equation #2.

The solution to equation #1 is larger than the solution to equation #2.

The solution to equation #1 is the same as the solution to equation #2.

None of the statements above describes solutions to equations shown.

Answer 1

5x-2x-2x=2
x=2

5x-2x= -10-2
3x= -12
x= -12/3
x= -4

Answer 2

the second frase is right
