Correct Question:
Explain how you know that 88 is a solution to the equation 1/8x =11 by completing the sentences:
The word "solution" means . . .
88 is a solution to 1/8x=11 because . . .
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
✔️The word solution means the value of the unknown variable, x. This means, when the value of x is substituted into the equation, the equation becomes balance as the value on the left equals the value on the right.
✔️88 is a solution to ⅛x = 11 because:
if we substitute x for 88 into the equation, both sides would be equal.
Thus:
⅛×88 = 11
11 = 11
