Answer 1

which one is it

Answer 2

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: **\( x = -24 \)**.

Answer 3

The equation with the solution of the lowest value is:

**\( x + 19 = -5 \)**

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