Answer:
Explanation:
13) 8 - 6 + 4 = 2 + 4 = 6
14) 16÷(4-2)-3 = 16÷2 - 3 = 8 - 3 = 5
15) 3x + 5 = 17
3x = 17 - 5
3x = 12
x = 4 ≠ 2
b. solution is incorrect
16)4y - 7 = 3y - 4
4y - 3y = -4 + 7
y = 3
a. solution is correct
17) 2m - 3 < 4
2m < 4 + 3
2m < 7
m < 3.5
2 < 2.5, so a. number is a solution
18 ) 5 + 2n ≥ 12
2n ≥ 12 - 5
2n ≥ 7
n ≥ 3.5
0 is not greater than equal to 3.5, so b. number is not a solution
