Practice Identifying an Equation as Conditional, an Identity, or a Contradiction
Instructions:
Answer 7/10 questions correctly to pass.
Solve each equation and state whether the equation is conditional, an identity, or a contradiction.
Note: For an answer of "identity" or "contradiction", nothing further is needed.
Note: For an answer of "conditional", select the answer type (fraction or integer), and enter the solution. All fraction answers must be simplified.
Note: For a negative fraction, use -a/b or a/-b. Using a/b or -a/-b will be treated as a positive fraction.
