In the equation below a is a number between 0 and 1 8 x a = b which statement about the value of b is always true

1 answer:

3 0

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$0 \le a \le 1$

$8*a =b$

Required

Determine the true statement about b

The question is incomplete as options are not given. However, a general explanation is as follows:

Rewrite $8*a =b$

$b = 8 * a$

When a = 0

$b = 8 * 0 = 0$

When a = 1

$b = 8 * 1 = 8$

This means that:

For $0 \le a \le 1$

Then $0 \le b \le 8$

<em>This means that: b is a number between 0 and 8</em>

Hey there!

Firstly, you have to $\bold{simplify}$ each of the sides of your equation
$\bold{6-2p-p+9\downarrow}$
$\bold{6+(-2p)=p+9\downarrow}$
$\rightarrow\bold{-2p+6=p+9}$
Now that you have that portion out of the way, we could move on to our second step... which is to $\bold{subtract}$ by the value of $\bold{p}$ on each of your sides
$\bold{-2p+6-p-p+9-p\downarrow}$
$\rightarrow\bold{-3p+6-9}$ (you get this because we solve the particular equation we added above)
Thirdly, you have to $\bold{subtract}$ by the number $\bold{6}$ on each of your sides
$\bold{-3p+6-6=9-6\downarrow}$
$\bold{Cancel:6-6}$ because it equals to $\bold{0}$
$\bold{Keep:9-6}$ because it brings us closer and closer to the answer of $\bold{p}$
Fourthly, we have to $\bold{divide}$ by the number $\bold{-3}$ on each of your sides
$\bold{\frac{-3p}{-3}=\frac{3}{-3}}$
$\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Answer:p=-1}}}$ $\checkmark$
