Question

Can someone write an equation out of X= -4 Y= -8 Z= 3

Answer 1

2y + 4z = x

Explanation:

Given

`x = -4`

`y = -8`

`z = 3`

Required

Write an equation that which is true for the above parameters

This question will be answered using trial by error method and the solution is not limited to one equation.

One equation that matches the values above is:.

`2y + 4z = x`

To check:

Substitute the values of x, y and z in the above equation.

`2y + 4z = x`

`2 * -8 + 4 * 3 = -4`

`-16 + 12 = -4`

`-4 = -4`

Hence,

Because both sides of the equation are one and the same (-4),
`2y + 4z = x` is true for the above values of x, y and z.
