Question

5x-10+2x=7+7x-17

Choose the Correct answer below:

Sometimes true
Never true
Always true

Answer 1

always true

Explanation:

Simplify, and if possible solve the equation to find out

remember, inverse operations

5x - 10 + 2x = 7 + 7x - 17

simplify both sides

7x - 10 = 7x - 10

this is an identity, no matter the value of x put in, the equation will be true,

hence the equation is always true
