To find the lowest value solution, we need to solve each equation and compare the values of x.
1) x + 19 = -5
Subtracting 19 from both sides:
x = -5 - 19
x = -24
2) x - 7 = 28
Adding 7 to both sides:
x = 28 + 7
x = 35
3) x + 25 = 2
Subtracting 25 from both sides:
x = 2 - 25
x = -23
4) x - 6 = -16
Adding 6 to both sides:
x = -16 + 6
x = -10
Comparing the values of x, we see that the lowest value is x = -24 from equation 1) x + 19 = -5.
Which of the following four equations has the solution of the lowest value?(1 point) Responses x + 19 = −5 x plus 19 equals negative 5 x − 7 = 28 x minus 7 equals 28 x + 25 = 2 x plus 25 equals 2 x − 6 = −16

Which of the following equations has a different value of x than the others?(1 point) Responses x + 98 = 74 x plus Start Fraction 9 over 8 End Fraction equals Start Fraction 7 over 4 End Fraction x − 0.025 = 0.6 x minus 0.025 equals 0.6 x + 0.875 = 1.5 x plus 0.875 equals 1.5 x − 78 = −32
To find the equation that has a different value of x than the others, we can solve each equation and compare the values of x.
1) x + 98 = 74
Subtracting 98 from both sides:
x = 74 - 98
x = -24
2) 9/8x = 7/4
Multiplying both sides by 8:
9x = 14
Dividing both sides by 9:
x = 14/9
3) x - 0.025 = 0.6
Adding 0.025 to both sides:
x = 0.6 + 0.025
x = 0.625
4) x + 0.875 = 1.5
Subtracting 0.875 from both sides:
x = 1.5 - 0.875
x = 0.625
5) x - 78 = -32
Adding 78 to both sides:
x = -32 + 78
x = 46
Comparing the values of x, we see that equation 4) x + 0.875 = 1.5 and equation 3) x - 0.025 = 0.6 have the same value of x = 0.625 as the others, while equations 1) x + 98 = 74 and 5) x - 78 = -32 have different values of x.
1) x + 98 = 74
Subtracting 98 from both sides:
x = 74 - 98
x = -24
2) 9/8x = 7/4
Multiplying both sides by 8:
9x = 14
Dividing both sides by 9:
x = 14/9
3) x - 0.025 = 0.6
Adding 0.025 to both sides:
x = 0.6 + 0.025
x = 0.625
4) x + 0.875 = 1.5
Subtracting 0.875 from both sides:
x = 1.5 - 0.875
x = 0.625
5) x - 78 = -32
Adding 78 to both sides:
x = -32 + 78
x = 46
Comparing the values of x, we see that equation 4) x + 0.875 = 1.5 and equation 3) x - 0.025 = 0.6 have the same value of x = 0.625 as the others, while equations 1) x + 98 = 74 and 5) x - 78 = -32 have different values of x.
x + 9/8 = 7/4 = 0.625 + 1.125= 1.75
I apologize for the mistake in equation 2) x + 9/8 = 7/4. It should be x + 9/8 = 7/4 and not x + 9/8 = 7/4 = 0.625 + 1.125.
To solve the equation x + 9/8 = 7/4:
Subtracting 9/8 from both sides:
x = 7/4 - 9/8
To subtract these fractions, we need to find a common denominator:
The least common denominator of 4 and 8 is 8.
Rewriting the fractions with a common denominator:
x = (7/4) - (9/8)
Multiplying the numerator and denominator of 7/4 by 2/2:
x = (7/4) * (2/2) - (9/8)
x = 14/8 - 9/8
x = 5/8
So, the value of x in the equation x + 9/8 = 7/4 is x = 5/8.
