Question

Answer two questions about Equations A and B:

Answer 1

1.  Rewrite one side (or both) by combining like terms. Option C

2. Yes, the equations are equivalent. Option A

Reasons for the answers

1.

Equation A ;  2x -1  = 5x

Equation B ; -1 = 3x

To get equation B from equation A

2x - 1 = 5x

Collect like terms

-1 = 5x -2x

Subtract the like terms

-1 = 3x

Thus, rewrite one side (or both) by combining like terms. Option C

2. 2x - 1 = 5x ...... equation A

Solution ;

2x -5x = 1

-3x = 1

x = -1/3

-1 = 3x

Solution;

x = -1/3

Thus, the equations are equivalent. Option A
