Question

For which equation would x = 4 be a solution?

28 – 5.25 x = 2.75
4.25 x + 7 = 24
4.25 x ÷ 8 = 9
7 + 3.25 x = 29

Answer 1

4.25 x + 7 = 24

Second choice

Explanation:

Plug in x = 4 into each equation and see which one is consistent

The correct answer is 4.25x + 7 = 24

Left side = 4.25(4) + 7

= 17 + 7

=24

which matches the right side 24
