Question

Beginning with the equation x=9, write the new equation produced by adding 16 to both sides.

Answer 1

The new equation is $x+16=25$

Explanation:

The equation is $x=9$

We need to determine the new equation by adding 16 to both sides of the equation.

Hence, we shall increase both sides of the equation $x=9$ by 16, we get,

$x+16=9+16$

Adding, we get,

$x+16=25$

Hence, the new equation is $x+16=25$
