Answer:
y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>SOLUTION :-</u>
Solve the equation.
- Add 8 to both sides in order to isolate the equation.


∴ y = -2
<u>VERIFICATION :-</u>
To verify the solution of y , just put the solution (y = -2) in place of y in equation and check whether L.H.S = R.H.S.
L.H.S :-
-2 - 8 = <u>-10</u>
R.H.S. :-
<u>-10</u> (already given)
⇒L.H.S. = R.H.S. (verified)
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer is 15 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width of the required poster be a cm.
We need to have a 6 cm margin at the top and a 4 cm margin at the bottom. Thus total margin combining top and bottom is 10 cm.
Similarly total margin combining both the sides is (4+4=) 8 cm.
So the required printing area of the poster is given by {( a-10 ) × ( a - 8) } 
This area is equal to 125
as per as the given problem.
∴ (a - 10) × (a - 8) = 125
⇒
- 18 a +80 -125 =0
⇒
- 18 a -45 = 0
⇒ (a-15) (a-3) = 0
By law of trichotomy the possible values of a are 15 and 3.
But a=3 is absurd as a
4.
Thus the required answer is 15 cm.
