Answer:

addition property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation 4(x-5) = -12

Expand

4x - 20 = -12

Add 20 to both sides (addition property of equality)

4x-20+20 = -12+20

4x = 8

x = 8/4

x = 2

Hence the value of x is 2

The justification for step 2 is addition property of equality

Reasoning : Why is the numerator greater than
Digiron [165]

Answer:

See the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

When the numerator is less than the denominator, the result is always less than 1, that is 0. something and this will give a percentage less than 100, but when the numerator is greater than the denominator, th result is greater than 1, and any figure greater than 1 gives a percentage that is greater than 100

example

Numerator >Denominator

=4/2*100

=2*100

=200%

Numerator <Denominator

=2/4*100

=0/5*100

=50%

P:-3x + 8x - 5x = x<br><br> q: (3x)(5y) = 15xy<br><br> Which of the following statements is false?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: Statement p is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

In both cases, we need to isolate the variables:

p: -3*x + 8*x - 5*x = x

   (-3*x - 5*x) + 8*x = x

    -8x + 8*x = x

        0 = x

This will be true only for one value of x, so this is not always true, which means that the statement is false.

q: (3*x)*(5*y) = 15*x*y

let's solve the left side:

  3*x*5*y = 15*x*y

  (3*5)*(x*y) = 15*x*y

   15*x*y = 15*x*y

This is true for every value of x and y, then this statement is true.
