Question

Seventh gradeS.1 Which x satisfies an equation? DJSWhat value of x is a solution to this equation?14 + x = 25x = 11x = 12

Answer 1

The given equation is

`14+x=25`

Remember that the value which satisfies an equation must give the same equality. For example, in this case, we have to get 25 on both sides of the equation.

Observe that x = 11 will satisfy the equation

`\begin{gathered} 14+11=25 \\ 25=25 \end{gathered}`

Hence, the right answer is x = 11.
