Let's solve each equation to find their solutions.

  1. Equation 1: \( x + 19 = -5 \)
    Subtract 19 from both sides:
    \( x = -5 - 19 \)
    \( x = -24 \)

  2. Equation 2: \( x + 25 = 2 \)
    Subtract 25 from both sides:
    \( x = 2 - 25 \)
    \( x = -23 \)

  3. Equation 3: \( x - 7 = 28 \)
    Add 7 to both sides:
    \( x = 28 + 7 \)
    \( x = 35 \)

  4. Equation 4: \( x - 6 = -16 \)
    Add 6 to both sides:
    \( x = -16 + 6 \)
    \( x = -10 \)

Now we can compare the solutions:

  • Equation 1: \( x = -24 \)
  • Equation 2: \( x = -23 \)
  • Equation 3: \( x = 35 \)
  • Equation 4: \( x = -10 \)

The solution with the lowest value is from Equation 1: \( x = -24 \).

which one is it

The equation with the solution of the lowest value is:

\( x + 19 = -5 \)

The solution to this equation is \( x = -24 \).
