Question

Answer two question about Equations A and BA. 3(x+2)=18B. x+2=61) How can we get Equation B from A?Choose 1 answer:(A). Add/ subtract the same quantify to/from both sides.(B). Add/subtract a quantity to/from only one side.(C). Muytiply/divide both sides by same non-zero constant (D). Muytiply/divide only one side by a non-zero constant2) , ? , ? 1 :(A) Yes (B) No

Answer 1

Equivalent Equations:

We have equation A:

3 (x+2) = 18

And equation B:

x + 2 = 6

Dividing both sides of equation A by 3:

x+2 = 18/3 = 6

x + 2 = 6

We have obtained equation B from A by dividing both sides by 3.

Answer: C

Since both equations can be obtained by multiplying or dividing the other equation by a non-zero constant, if follows the equations are equivalent

(A) Yes
