step by step explanation

Answer:
a. no
b. yes
c. yes
d. no
Step-by-step explanation:
a. 2(20)+6=34 multiply 2 by 20
40+6=34 add 40 and 6
[tex]46\neq 34[/tex]
b. 27/3-2=7 divide 27 by 3
9-2=7 subtract
7=7
c. 23=3+4(5) multiply 4 and 5
23=3+20 add 3 and 20
23=23
d. 9=24/3-1 divide 24 by 3
9=8-1 subtract 8 and 1
[tex]9\neq 7[/tex]
Answer:
a) the given value is not a solution to the equation
b) the given value is a solution to the equation
c) the given value is a solution to the equation
d) the given value is not a solution to the equation
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 2k + 6 = 34
2k = 34 - 6
2k = 28
k = 14 (the question states that k = 20 but that is not true, there for k = 20 is not a solution to the equation)
b) [tex]\frac{y}{3} - 2 = 7[/tex]
[tex]\frac{y}{3} = 7 + 2[/tex]
[tex]\frac{y}{3} = 9[/tex]
[tex]y = 27[/tex] (the question states also states that y = 27, therefore the given value of y is a solution to the equation)
c) 23 = 3 + 4g
4g = 23 - 3
4g = 20
g = 5 (the question states also states that g = 5, therefore the given value of g is a solution to the equation)
d) [tex]9 = \frac{p}{3} - 1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{p}{3} = 9 + 1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{p}{3} = 10[/tex]
[tex]p = 30[/tex] (the question states that p = 24 but that is not true, therefore p = 24 is not a solution to the equation)
