<span>hypothesis :-
 if x=30, then 3/4x+5≠20
 let Q:- x=30 P:- 3/4x+5≠20
 we need to prove if Q then P (Q →P)
 
proof :-
lets assume 34x+5=20 is true
now x=30
 so
  3/4(30)+5=27.5 ≠20
which is a contradiction

What's the solution of the following linear system?<br><br> y = 4x + 1<br><br> y = 4x
allochka39001 [22]
The solution of a system of equations is the point at which the two lines intersect. Since y is already isolated, we can set the equations equal to each other by doing:
4x=4x+1
Subtract 4x from both sides
0=1
Since 0 cannot equal 1 in any case, the lines never intersect. There is no solution to the problem.
