(a) Without solving the equation we can't determine whether its true or false.
(b) If x = 3
4x + 1 = 2x + 5
4(3) + 1 = 2(3) + 5
12 + 1 = 15 + 5
13 = 20
No, if x = 3, the equation will not be true.
(c) 4x + 1 = 2x + 5
4x - 2x = 5 - 1
2x = 4
x = 4/2
x = 2
This shows that x = 2 makes the equation true.
your answer would be 19 inches because 24 divided by 12(length of a foot in inches) is 2 and therefore you also divide 4.75 by 2 to get 2.375 and multiply that by 8 the amount of feet and your done
Answer:
15%
Step-by-step explanation:
Question:
The price of a jacket was slashed from Rs.960 to Rs.816.Then the rate of discount offered is
Solution
Original price= Rs.960
Discount price= Rs.816
Difference in price=Original price - discount price
=Rs. 960 - Rs. 816
=Rs. 144
Percentage discount= Difference in price / Original price × 100
=Rs. 144 / Rs. 960 × 100
=0.15 × 100
=15%
The percentage discount =15% NOT 10% as you have written
