Answer:
The given statement is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is 4(x+5)=24
Required to find whether x = 1 is a solution of the equation
Recall the property
Distributive property: a(b+c) = ab +ac
Additive identity : a+(-a) = 0
Solution:
Given 4(x+5)=24
4x +20 = 24 (by applying distributive property)
Adding (-20) on both sides we get
4x+20+(-20) = 24+(-20) (by applying additive identity)
4x = 4
Dividing by 4 on both sides
x = 1
∴ x = 1 is solution of the given equation.
Hence the given statement is true.
