Answer:
the following 3 equations are equivalent :
• x + 1 = 4
• 2 + x = 5
• -5 + x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
2 + x = 5
x + 1 = 4
9 + x = 6
x + (- 4) = 7
-5 + x = - 2
Let’s take this equation :
x + 1 = 4
=======
By Adding 1 to both sides of the equation we get :
x + 1 + 1 = 4 + 1
⇔ x + 2 = 5
⇔ 2 + x = 5
Then the equations x + 1 = 4 and 2 + x = 5 are equivalent.
…………………………………………………………………
On the other hand ,if we subtract 6 from both sides
of the equation x + 1 = 4 we get :
x + 1 - 6 = 4 - 6
⇔ x - 5 = -2
⇔ -5 + x = -2
Then the equations x + 1 = 4 and -5 + x = -2 are equivalent.
