Answer:

C. If an animal is a dog, then it is a golden retriever; false

Step-by-step explanation:

Logical reasoning is an important aspect of mathematics.

The conditional statements in the question are represented by the letters p and q. The if-then statement in which the statement p will lead to a conclusion in q is a glaring characteristic of conditional statements. A conditional will be held to be true unless a statement that is true has a false conclusion derived from it.

In the question above, the conditional statement is; If an animal is a dog, then it is a golden retriever. We can clearly see that this conclusion is false.

Solve for : x 4(x+5)=3(x-2)-2(x+2)

Hey there!!

In order to solve this equation, we will have to use the distributive property.

What is distributive property?

We will need to distribute one term to the other terms preset.

Example : 4 ( 3x - 1 )

sing distributive property, we will have to distribute the term outside the parenthesis to the terms inside. In this case, we will have to distribute 4 to 3x and -1

( 4 × 3x ) + ( 4 × -1 )

12x + ( -4 )

= 12x - 4

This is after implementing the distributive property.

Now moving back onto the question

4 ( x + 5 ) = 3 ( x - 2 ) - 2 ( x + 2 )

Let us first solve 4 ( x + 5 )

Distribute 4 to x and 5

( 4 × x ) + ( 4 × 5 )

4x + 20

Now let's solve 3 ( x - 2 )

Distribute 3 to x and -2

( 3 × x ) + ( 3 × - 2 )

3x - 6

Solve for -2 ( x + 2 )

Distribute -2 to x and 2

( -2 × x ) + ( -2 × 2 )

-2x - 4

Now, let's get everything back together

4x + 20 = 3x - 6 - 2x - 4

Combine all the like terms

4x + 20 = x - 10

Adding 10 on both sides

4x + 20 + 10 = x - 10 + 10

4x + 30 = x

Subtracting 4x on both sides

4x - 4x + 30 = x - 4x

30 = -3x

Dividing by -3 on both sides

30 / -3 = -3x / -3

- 10 = x

<h2>x = - 10 </h2><h3>Hope my answer helps!</h3>

Answer:

View explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question isn't clear on whether or not you are asking if the mom or if the store is owing money to the credit card company. The store owes the full amount paid. The mom owes nothing. You can look at the images for a more detailed explanation, but it is not really needed.
