  3z -x/2 = 37 . . . . . . . . the given relation

  3(x +4) -x/2 = 37 . . . . substituting for z

  5/2x +12 = 37 . . . . . . .eliminate parentheses and simplify

  5/2x = 25 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 12

  x = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2/5

_____

<em>Check</em>

3z = 3·14 = 42

x/2 = 10/2 = 5

42 exceeds 5 by 37 . . . . true

HELP PLEASE Rajiv has a liability on his car. How is this BEST demonstrated?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

He has insurance in case of an accident.

Insurance, in legal and financial terms, is a form of risk management, used primarily to protect against the risk of potential financial losses.

Ideally, it is defined as the fair transfer of risk of potential loss from one entity to another in exchange for a reasonable fee. In practice, however, the insurance protection business often results in litigation between the parties concerned.

Generally, it is a contract in which one party agrees to pay for the financial losses of another party as a result of a specified event.

To show what he learned about the properties of volume for solids, liquids and gases, Viktor wrote the following summary.
Brrunno [24]

The wrong statement in Viktor's summary is When a round solid ball is placed in a box, the ball takes the shape of the box

The matter has three main states which are

  • Solid
  • Liquid
  • Gas

These states define the way we interact and manipulate materials. For instance:

  • Liquids take the shape of the container that contains them. For example water, milk, soda, among others.
  • Solids have a defined shape and do not deform when manipulated or placed inside another container. For example, a round solid ball.
  • Gases generally do not have colors and their atoms are not organized so they do not have a definite shape and take the shape of their container. For example, the air in a balloon.

According to the above, the error in Viktor's summary is in the first phase, and the correct statement is A. because solids does not take the shape of its container.
