Question

Compare and Contrast:

Two equations are listed below. Solve each equation and compare the solutions. Choose the statement that is true about both solutions.

Equation 1
|5x - 6| = -41

Equation 2
|7x + 13| = 27

A.) Equation 1 has more solutions than equation 2.
B.) Equation 1 and Equation 2 have the same number of solutions.
C.) Equation 2 has more solutions than Equation 1.
D.) The number of solutions cannot be determined.

Answer 1

equation 1 :
| 5x - 6 | = -41.....no solution because an absolute vlue cannot equal a negative number

equation 2 :
| 7x + 13 | = 27...2 solutions

C. equation 2 has more solutions then equation 1.

Answer 2

So the question ask on which of the following questions is true about the two solution that is given and the best answer among the following, based on my calculation and further formulation, the answer is letter C. Equation 2 has more solution than Equation 1. Hope this helps
