Compare and Contrast: Two equations are listed below. Solve each equation and compare the solutions. Choose the statement that i
s true about both solutions. Equation 1Equation 2. |5x + 6| = 41|2x + 13| = 28. Equation 1 has more solutions than equation 2. Equation 1 and Equation 2 have the same number of solutions. Equation 2 has more solutions than Equation 1. The number of solutions cannot be determined.
<span>The correct answer is option B. i.e. Both equation 1 and 2 have the same number of solutions. The equation 1 is |5x+6| = 41 By removing the modulus sign we get, 5x + 6 = 41 and 5x +6 = -41. Solving, 5x = 6 = 41 we get, 5x = 35 or x = 7. And, on solving 5x +6 = -41 we get, 5x = -47 or x = 9.4 Now. the second equation is |2x+13| = 28 By removing the modulus sign we get, 2x+ 13 = 28 and 2x +13 = -28. Solving, 2x = 28 -13 = 15 or x = 7.5 . And, on solving 2x +13 = -28 we get, 2x = -41 or x = -20.5.TH </span>
