Answer:
1. Rewrite one side (or both) by combining like terms
2. They are equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A. 2x-1+3x=0
B. 5x-1=0
Required
How to get equation B from A?
Are both equations equivalent?
- How to get equation B from A?
Option C answers this question
This is shown below
Equation A can be rewritten as thus:
[tex]2x - 1 + 3x=0[/tex]
Collect Like Terms
[tex]2x + 3x -1=0[/tex]
This gives
[tex]5x-1=0[/tex]
At this stage, we have equation B
- Are both equations equivalent?
Yes they are:
This is shown below:
Equation A was solved in (1) above to give:
[tex]5x-1=0[/tex]
And Equation B is
[tex]5x-1=0[/tex]
Hence:
We can conclude that both are equivalent
The given equations are equivalent and this can be determined by combining like terms by using the arithmetic operations.
Given :
- 2x - 1 + 3x = 0 --- (1)
- 5x - 1 = 0 --- (2)
The following steps can be used in order to determine the correct statement:
Step 1 - Write the given equations.
2x - 1 + 3x = 0
5x - 1 = 0
Step 2 - The arithmetic operations can be used in order to determine the correct statement.
Step 3 - Add 2x and 3x in equation (1).
5x - 1 = 0 --- (3)
Step 4 - Compare both equations (3) and (2). It can be concluded that both equations are identical.
Therefore, the correct option is C).
