How does x=3?

Simple. 5x-7=8 is the equation displayed.

We add 7 to both sides so we can try to cancel as many things as possible. 5x-7+7=8+7 ===>15.
We now have to cancel that 15 to get x. We do the opposite of multiplying by 5 (seen when 5 and x are together) we divide by 5 to both sides ====> 5x/5=15/5 ======> x=3. Thus, x is equal to 15!


Hope this helps!!!

i)On z, define a∗b=a−b
here aϵz
+
and bϵz
+

i.e.,a and b are positive integers
Let a=2,b=5⇒2∗5=2−5=−3
But −3 is not a positive integer
i.e., −3∈
/
z
+

hence,∗ is not a binary operation.
ii)On Q,define a∗b=ab−1
Check commutative
∗ is commutative if,a∗b=b∗a
a∗b=ab+1;a∗b=ab+1=ab+1
Since a∗b=b∗aforalla,bϵQ
∗ is commutative.
Check associative
∗ is associative if (a∗b)∗c=a∗(b∗c)
(a∗b)∗c=(ab+1)∗c=(ab+1)c+1=abc+c+1
a∗(b∗c)=a∗(bc+1)=a(bc+1)+1=abc+a+1
Since (a∗b)∗c

=a∗(b∗c)
∗ is not an associative binary operation.
iii)On Q,define a∗b=

Check commutative

a∗b=b∗a∀a,bϵQ

Since (a∗b)∗c=a∗(b∗c)∀a,b,cϵQ
