Question

2)Solve the equation 6p = 24 by trial and error method .

Answer 1

Substituting different values of the variable and checking the equality of LHS and RHS is the trial and error method.

Let us solve the equation 6p = 24.

(i) Take p=0,then

6p=24

6×0=24

0=24

As,LHS is not equal to RHS.

So,p=0 is not the solution.

(ii)Take p=1,then

6p=24

6×1=24

6=24

As,LHS is not equal to RHS.

So,p=1 is not the solution.

(iii) Take p=2,then

6p=24

6×2=24

12=24

As,LHS is not equal to RHS.

So,p=2 is not the solution.

(iv) Take p=3,then

6p=24

6×3=24

18=24

As,LHS is not equal to RHS.

So,p=3 is not the solution.

(v) Take p=4,then

6p=24

6×4=24

24=24

As,LHS is equal to RHS.

So,p=4 is the solution.
