Question

Which answer choice contains only equations?
2 + h = 14 and k minus 25 = 2
c minus 14 and d + 134
10 = 3 + s and 22 minus y
15 + x and 55 = r minus 1

Answer 1

To determine which answer choice contains only equations, we need to look for choices that consist exclusively of statements that can be classified as equations (i.e., statements that assert equality).

Let's examine each choice:

1. **2 + h = 14 and k minus 25 = 2**
- The first part (2 + h = 14) is an equation.
- The second part (k minus 25 = 2) is not written in standard equation form; it would need to be converted to k - 25 = 2.
- So, not all parts are equations.

2. **c minus 14 and d + 134**
- Neither part is an equation. They do not assert equality.
- This choice contains no equations.

3. **10 = 3 + s and 22 minus y**
- The first part (10 = 3 + s) is an equation.
- The second part (22 minus y) does not assert equality.
- So, not all parts are equations.

4. **15 + x and 55 = r minus 1**
- The first part (15 + x) is not an equation; it does not assert equality.
- The second part (55 = r - 1) is an equation.
- So, not all parts are equations.

After analyzing all answer choices, **none contain exclusively equations**. However, the closest candidates based on content include choice 1 and choice 3, as they have one equation each but also have a part that is not an equation.

If you need to pick the option with the most equations, choose those that contain at least one equation each but realize that they all still miss full conformity to being entirely equations.

In conclusion, there seems to be no choice that contains only pure equations in the selections provided.
