which of the following equations has a different vale then the others
a. x - 7/8 = -3/2
b. x+ 9/8 = 7/4
c. x + 0.875 = 1.5
d. x- 0.025 = 0.6
To identify which equation has a different value than the others, we need to solve for x in each equation and compare the solutions.
a. x - 7/8 = -3/2
Adding 7/8 to both sides:
x = -3/2 + 7/8
x = -12/8 + 7/8
x = -5/8
b. x + 9/8 = 7/4
Subtracting 9/8 from both sides:
x = 7/4 - 9/8
x = 14/8 - 9/8
x = 5/8
c. x + 0.875 = 1.5
Subtracting 0.875 from both sides:
x = 1.5 - 0.875
x = 0.625
d. x - 0.025 = 0.6
Adding 0.025 to both sides:
x = 0.6 + 0.025
x = 0.625
Comparing the solutions:
Out of the four equations, only equation c has a different value. Therefore, the answer is equation c: x + 0.875 = 1.5
