Question

SINCE NOONE CARES ABOUT ANSWERING MY QUESTIONS I AM BOOSTING THE POINTS ON THIS ONE UP TO 20 AND I WILL POST AN ENTIRE HOMEWORK SHEET FOR 100 MUST ANSWER PROPERLY

Answer 1

The first equation is higher, which means B is the correct answer.

5x - 2x = 2x + 2

Add 2x to both sides.

5x = 4x + 2

Subtract 4x from both sides.

x = 2

5x + 2 = 2x - 10

Subtract 2x from both sides.

3x + 2 = -10

Subtract 2 from both sides.

3x = -12

Divide both sides by 3.

x = -4
