Question

Which of the following four equations has the solution of the lowest value?(1 point)
Responses

x + 25 = 2
x plus 25 equals 2

x − 7 = 28
x minus 7 equals 28

x − 6 = −16
x minus 6 equals negative 16

x + 19 = −5
x plus 19 equals negative 5

Answer 1

Solve each for x:

1) x + 25 = 2 → x = 2 − 25 = −23
2) x − 7 = 28 → x = 28 + 7 = 35
3) x − 6 = −16 → x = −16 + 6 = −10
4) x + 19 = −5 → x = −5 − 19 = −24

The lowest value is −24, from x + 19 = −5.
