Question

Determine which equation below has a solution of x = 2.




A.

5x + 8 – 12x = –6x + 2x – 3


B.

6x + 4 – 12x = –10x + 18x – 3


C.

–4x – 6 + x = –2x + x – 10


D.

–3x – 8 + x = –4x + x – 10

Answer 1

Well a simpler way than solving each one 1 by one for x you substitue x for 2 and see which one is true

Answer 2

yea

Answer 3

u live in michigan ? and the answer is b !

Answer 4

So for A:
\[5(2)+ 8 – 12(2) = –6(2)+ 2(2) – 3 \]
\[10+8-24=-12+4-3\]
\[18+-24=-11\]
\[6=-11\]
So you do that with all of the equations and see which one works as x=2. I already did A for you, so now you need to do this for B, C, and D
