Question

Mr. Turney wrote the value statement "x = 2" on the whiteboard. He asked his students to create an equation or inequality with this value as a solution.

Answer 1

Answer:

Some of the equations can be written as-

1. 2x = 4

2. 3x + 9 = 15

3. x + 5 = 7

4. 5x - 2 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Mr. Turney wrote the value statement "x = 2" on the whiteboard.

To find - He asked his students to create an equation or inequality with

              this value as a solution.

Proof -

Given that, The value statement is ''x = 2''

We have to find out that equation in such a way that if we solve the equation , we get the value x = 2

There can be infinite many equation that give the value statement '' x = 2''

Some of the equations can be written as-

1. 2x = 4

2. 3x + 9 = 15

3. x + 5 = 7

4. 5x - 2 = 8

And many more.

Verification -

1. 2x = 4

⇒x = $\frac{4}{2}$

⇒x = 2

Verified

2. 3x + 9 = 15

⇒3x = 15 - 9

⇒3x = 6

⇒x = $\frac{6}{3}$

⇒x = 2

Verified

3. x + 5 = 7

⇒x = 7 - 5

⇒x = 2

Verified

4. 5x - 2 = 8

⇒5x = 8 + 2

⇒5x = 10

⇒x = $\frac{10}{5}$

⇒x = 2
