Consider the first equation : -3x-8=19.
Adding 8 to both sides, we get -3x=27. Dividing by -3 yields the solution x=-9.
Consider the first equation : -3x-2=25.
Adding 2 to both sides, we get -3x=27. Dividing by -3 yields the solution x=-9, again.
Thus, the 2 equations have the same solution.
We could have achieved this result also by noticing that the second equation is equivalent to first one, adding 6 to both sides.
Answer: A) The equations have the same solution because the second can be obtained by adding 6 to both sides of the first equation.
