Is 13 a solution to the equation 10 – x = 3?

Question

I think this answer is wrong 13 is not the solution.
Can someone tell me if I am right

Answer 1

no, seven is. That is x=7

10-x=3
-7=-x
x=7

Answer 2

If it was x-10=3, then 13 would be right

Answer 3

10-x=3, to solve this you just need to add/ subtract things to/from both sides. Start by subtracting 10 from both sides, so you're left with -x=-7, then since you're looking for x, and not -x, you would multiply both sides by -1 (any negative multiplied by negative becomes positive) and you would get x=7. You know 13 is not a solution because if you plug in 13 for x you would get 10-13=3 which is wrong, 10-13=-3

Answer 4

No, 13 is not the solution

10-13 = -3 thats right MINUS 3

10 - 7 = 3

because

10 - x = 3
10 = 3 + x
10 - 3 = x
7 = x

The answer is 7.

Answer 5

X cannot equal 13. That would make the difference -3, not 3.
The answer is 7.

Answer 6

10 - 13 would be a -3 since a positive (10) and a negative (-13) give u a negative, the only correct answer is 7

Answer 7

No, 13 could not be the answer. Check it...

10-13=3 Nope

Here's the answer:
-x=-7
x=7

Check:
10-7=3 yup

Answer 8

You are right - that answer is wrong. Substitute x=13 into the equation and you will not get the correct solution.

X=7 is the answer.

Answer 9

if the question is "what does x equal?" then the answer is not 13, it is 7 because 10 - 7 = 3
if you don't understand the whole x thing, maybe you should talk to your teacher and get them to explain it again to you

Answer 10

its 7

Answer 11

no. If you add an x to both sides, the equation would be
10=3+x.
Then you subtract a 3 from both sides and you get
x=7
