Question

John wrote that 5+5 = 10. Then he wrote that 5+5+n = 10 + n. Are the equations John wrote equivalent? explain

Answer 1

Yes, they are equivalent

Explanation:

John's first equation states that 5+5=10. Now we have a equation that shows 5+5, which we learned earlier equals 10, plus n.

Since 5+5=10, and the second equation John wrote is 10 + n, they are equivalent.
