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.
C.
6 is a constant, so we know that y is greater than or equal to 6.
x is just a variable, but it has to be positive, so it could be anything greater than or equal to 0.
Total flour = white flour + wheat flour, therefore y = x + 6.
Answer:
lots of multiplying I've noticed
Associativity means
(A+B)+C=A+(B+C)=A+B+C
Substitute A=9, B=8, C=32 to apply to this problem.
