To find the solution with the lowest value, we need to solve each equation and compare the resulting values of x.
1) x - 7 = 28
Adding 7 to both sides: x = 35
2) x - 6 = -16
Adding 6 to both sides: x = -10
3) x + 19 = -5
Subtracting 19 from both sides: x = -24
4) x + 25 = 2
Subtracting 25 from both sides: x = -23
Comparing the values we obtained:
35 > -10 > -23 > -24
Thus, the solution with the lowest value is x = -24, which corresponds to the equation x +19 = -5.
which of the following four equations has the solution of the lowest value
x-7=28
x-6=-16
x+19=-5
x+25=2
