Question

Verify that x = 2 is the solution of the equation 4.4x – 3.8 = 5

Answer 1

$\huge\color{lavender}{\mid{\fbox{\tt{AnswEr}}\mid}}$

We have 4.4x – 3.8 = 5

Putting x = 2, we have

4.4 × 2 – 3.8 = 5

⇒ 8.8 – 3.8 = 5

⇒ 5 = 5

L.H.S. = R.H.S.

Hence verified.

Answer 2

$\huge\mathsf\red{answer}$

Put the value of x = 2 in given equation

4.4(2)-3.8 = 5

8.8 - 3.8 = 5

5 = 5

here LHS=RHS

hence proved x=2 is solution of equation 4.4x-3.8=5
