Question

I GIVE MEDALS!!!!! PLZ HELP


Compare and Contrast: Below are two equations. Solve each equation and compare the two solutions. Choose the statement that is true about each solution.

Answer 1

Equation #1: 8 - 3x = 5x + 16
Equation #2: 9x - 14 = 8x - 15



A.) The solution to equation #1 is larger than the solution to equation #2.
B.) The solution to equation #1 is smaller than the solution to equation #2.
C.) The solution to equation #1 is the same as the solution to equation #2.
D.) None of the statements above describe solutions to equations shown.

Answer 2

D. None of the statements above describe solutions to the equations shown

Answer 3

I was thinking C because if you do the work...they both equal -1

Answer 4

But they don't give you a number for X there for you cant correctly work out the problem :)

Answer 5

8 - 3x = 5x + 16

8x = -8

x = -1

9x - 14 = 8x - 15

x = -1

Answer 6

well if you know the answer then why ask

Answer 7

to confirm.

Answer 8

^ exactly

Answer 9

Well she was kind of rude to the person? no need to be rude. we are all human beings. they tried to help and she tried to argue i am just saying

Answer 11

@gabernathy9797 just misunderstanding,!! instead of "check my work" she asks for help, that 's it. Please, be generous

Answer 12

Either I read the questions or answers wrong cause I am confused also

Answer 13

the question is SOLVE AND COMPARE THE SOLUTIONS
so, first off, you have to solve both them to get the solutions
then compare them.
That's it
