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

Question

Responses

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

x + 25 = 2
x plus 25 equals 2

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

x − 7 = 28
x minus 7 equals 28

Answer 1

Let's solve each equation for \( x \):

1. \( x + 19 = -5 \) \[ x = -5 - 19 = -24 \]

2. \( x + 25 = 2 \) \[ x = 2 - 25 = -23 \]

3. \( x - 6 = -16 \) \[ x = -16 + 6 = -10 \]

4. \( x - 7 = 28 \) \[ x = 28 + 7 = 35 \]

Now, let's compare the solutions:

• From the first equation, \( x = -24 \)
• From the second equation, \( x = -23 \)
• From the third equation, \( x = -10 \)
• From the fourth equation, \( x = 35 \)

The solution with the lowest value is from the first equation:

\( x = -24 \).

Answer 2

but what does the equation look like

Answer 3

The equations you provided, along with their respective solutions, can be shown in a more standard format. Here they are listed again, this time clarifying how they appear:

1. Equation: \( x + 19 = -5 \)
   Solution: \( x = -24 \)

2. Equation: \( x + 25 = 2 \)
   Solution: \( x = -23 \)

3. Equation: \( x - 6 = -16 \)
   Solution: \( x = -10 \)

4. Equation: \( x - 7 = 28 \)
   Solution: \( x = 35 \)

If you want to represent these equations in a written or visual format, here's a clearer structure:

1. Equation: \[ x + 19 = -5 \] yields \[ x = -24 \]

2. Equation: \[ x + 25 = 2 \] yields \[ x = -23 \]

3. Equation: \[ x - 6 = -16 \] yields \[ x = -10 \]

4. Equation: \[ x - 7 = 28 \] yields \[ x = 35 \]

Thus, the lowest value solution comes from the first equation \( x + 19 = -5 \) resulting in \( x = -24 \).
