Question

Which number(s) below belong to the solution set of the equation? Check all

that apply.
x + 50 = 60
A. 40
B. 60
C. 30
D. 50
E. 10

Answer 1

E. 10

Explanation:

To solve the equation x + 50 = 60, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation. Subtracting 50 from both sides, we get:

x + 50 - 50 = 60 - 50

x = 10

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 10. Checking the answer choices, we see that E. 10 is the only number that belongs to the solution set. Therefore, the answer is:

E. 10
