Answer:
EC = 11 units
Explanation:
- first we find the value of x
10 + 2x + 19 = x + 20
2x - x = 20 - 10 - 19
x = -9
--------------------------------
check
10 + 2(-9) + 19 = -9 + 20
10 - 18 + 19 = -9 + 20
11 = 11
same value the answer is good
EC = 10 + 2x + 19
EC = 10 + 2(-9) + 19 (remember PEMDAS)
EC = 10 - 18 + 19
EC = 11 units
