Answer:
5 should be subtracted from each term
Step-by-step explanation:
Cross multiply,
1 * (11 - x) = 2*(8-x)
11 -x = 2*8 - 2*x
11 - x = 16 - 2x
Subtract 11 from both sides,
-x = 16 - 2x - 11
-x = 5 - 2x
Add 2x to both sides
-x +2x = 5 - 2 + 2x
x = 5
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
(a) A natural number that is greater than 25 and less than 40
Natural Number : These are numbers starting from 1 or also sometimes from zero and are all positive ! A natural greater than 25 & less than 40 is 30 .
(b) An integer which is less than -5 and a multiple of 2
Integer : An integer is a whole number not a fraction including 0 . It can be positive or negative ! Integer less than -5 and a multiple of 2 is -6.
(c) A rational number between 1 and 2
Rational Number : A number which can be expressed in form of p/q where q is not equal to 0 . A rational number between 1 & 2 is 3/2 .
(d) An irrational number between 8 and 9.
Irrational Number: A real number which is not rational or can't be written in form of p/q . An irrational number between 8 & 9 is .
