Not necessarily. You could have done your multiplication wrong. Or in some cases, yes, you could have to use another skill. For example, you can't solve an optimization problem with addition, you need some calculus skills under your belt.
12/x = 15/8
96 = 15x
x= 6.4 or 32/5
Answer: 0.06p = 0.72
p = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The original price was $12.
This equation is NEVER true. Let's solve the equations algebraically by applying the Distributive Property of Multiplication and transposing the terms across the equality sign. The solution is as follows:
<span>2(5x+4)=10x+6
10x + 8 = 10x + 6
10x - 10x = 6 - 8
0 = -2
Therefore, it is not true.</span>
