Answer 1

Answer:

a. No

b. Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

x - 4 = 12

x - 4 + 4 = 12 + 4

x = 16

16 ≠ 8

Therefore, the following value given for problem a is not a solution to the given equation.

b. (3 + x)/4 = 3

(3 + x)/4 * 4 = 3 * 4

3 + x = 12

3 + x - 3 = 12 - 3

x = 9

9 = 9

Therefore, the following value given for problem b is a solution to the given equation.
