Solve the given equation:
13 + x = 29
Subtract 13 from both sides:
x = 16

Now look at each choice and solve for x.

A. 29 + 13 = x
x = 42

B. 13 = 29 - x
-16 = -x
x = 16

C. x = 29 - 13
x = 16

D. 13 - x = 29
-x = 16
x = -16

Choices B and C have the same solution as the given equation, so choices B and C are equivalent to the given equation.

Answer:

[tex]13=29-x[/tex]

[tex]x=29-13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is [tex]13 + x = 29[/tex]

Solve the given equation for x, subtract 13 from both sides

[tex]x=16[/tex]

Now we solve each equation given for x

[tex]29 + 13 = x[/tex], x=42

[tex]13=29-x[/tex], subtract 29 from both sides

[tex]-16=-x[/tex] divide both sides by -1

x=16

[tex]x=29-13[/tex], x= 16

[tex]13-x=29[/tex] subtract 13 from both sides

[tex]-x=16[/tex] divide both sides by -1

x=-16

Option B  and C gives the same solution x=16
