Which statement is true about the potential solution x = –5? this number is not a true solution because it is negative. this number is not a true solution because –5x – 18 is negative. this number is not a true solution because 2 – x is negative. this number is a true solution of the original equation.

the correct option is d on edg. Hope i helped:)

Step-by-step explanation:

D) This number is a true solution of the original equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution of an equation is x = -5.

This could be the solution of a linear equation because the linear equation has the highest degrees of 1.

For example, x + 5 = 0

The solution for the above equation is x = -5

-5 + 5 = 0

0 = 0, which is true.

Here is another example.

2x + 10 = 0

Subtracting both sides by 10, we get

2x + 10 - 10 = 0 - 10

2x = -10

Dividing both sides by 2, we get

x = -5

Let's plug in x = -5 and test the result.

2(-5) + 10 = 0

-10 + 10 = 0

0 = 0

Which is true

Therefore, x = -5 is solution of the above equation.

For the above examples, we can conclude that x = -5 can be the true solution of the equations.

Answer is D) This number is a true solution of the original equation.
