Question

Are -2x=10 and -5x=25 equivalent

Answer 1

Yes they are ,if you solve -2x=10 and -5x=25 you will get the same answer which is x,y=-5

Answer 2

Yes, they are equivalent

Explanation:

Hello!

First, let's solve for x in each equation.

-2x = 10

• -2x = 10
• x = 10/-2
• x = -5

-5x=25

• -5x = 25
• x = 25/-5
• x = -5

Since both values of x are the same, we can say that they are both equivalent.
