1. –9x – 5 = –95

a) 17
b) 11
c) 10 <-----------------------------
d) –10

2.– 10 = –12

a) –6
b) –66 <---------------------------
c) 6
d) 66

To solve these equations, we need to isolate the variable (x) on one side of the equation. Let's start with the first equation:

1. –9x – 5 = –95

Adding 5 to both sides of the equation to cancel out the -5 on the left side:

–9x = –90

Now we need to isolate x, so we divide both sides of the equation by -9:

x = –90 / -9

Simplifying this expression:

x = 10

So the answer is c) 10.

Let's move on to the second equation:

2. –10 = –12

Since there is no variable on the equation, this equation is already solved for a single value. In this case, the equation is saying that -10 is equal to -12, which is false. There is no value that can make this equation true.

Therefore, there is no answer to this equation.

1 correct

2 I think you are missing an x somewhere in the equation.
