O A. Yes, 6 is a solution to the equation because a true statement results after replacing x with 6.
O B. No. 6 is not a solution to the equation because a false statement results after replacing x with 6.
O C. Yes, 6 is a solution to the equation because a false statement results after replacing x with 6.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if x = 6 is a solution, substitute x = 6 into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then it is a solution.

2(6) - 5 = 12 - 5 = 7 ≠ 1

Then x = 6 is not a solution of the equation since a false statement results after replacing x with 6 (B)
