Are -2x + 9 = 7 and 2x = 2 equivalent?​

Yes because the answer to both of them is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−2x+9=7

Step 1: Subtract 9 from both sides.

−2x+9−9=7−9

−2x=−2

Step 2: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x

−2

=

−2

−2

x=1

x=1    

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2x=2

Step 1: Divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

2

2

x=1

x=1
