Question

Drag each tile to the correct box.

Each of these equations holds true for one value of x from the set {5, 12, 15, 18). Arrange the equations in increasing order of the x-values that
make them true.
6x - 15 = 75
2(2x - 1) = 46
X + (x - 10) = 26
5x - 3x = 10

Answer 1

5x - 3x = 10

2(2x - 1) = 46

6x - 15 = 75

x+(x - 10) = 26

Answer 2

Explanation:

6x - 15 = 75, 6x = 90, x = 15.

2(2x - 1) = 46, 2x - 1 = 23, x = 12.

x + (x - 10) = 26, 2x = 36, x = 18.

5x - 3x = 10, 2x = 10, x = 5.

Hence the equations

in increasing order of x-values are:

5x - 3x = 10,

2(2x - 1) = 46,

6x - 15 = 75, and

x + (x - 10) = 26.
