Solving the Equation: 0 × -1 = 0 and 3 × +2
In this article, we will explore two simple equations and solve them step by step.
Equation 1: 0 × -1 = 0
The equation 0 × -1 = 0 is a simple multiplication equation. To solve it, we need to follow the order of operations (PEMDAS):
- Multiply 0 and -1: 0 × -1 = 0
As we can see, the result of the multiplication is indeed 0. Therefore, the equation 0 × -1 = 0 is TRUE.
Equation 2: 3 × +2
The equation 3 × +2 is an incomplete equation, as it is missing an operand. To solve it, we need to assume that the correct equation is 3 × x + 2 = ?, where x is a variable.
Let's assume x = 1:
- Multiply 3 and 1: 3 × 1 = 3
- Add 2: 3 + 2 = 5
Therefore, the solution to the equation 3 × +2 (assuming x = 1) is 5.
In conclusion, we have solved two equations: 0 × -1 = 0, which is true, and 3 × +2, which is incomplete and requires an assumption to solve.
