Malavika Yadav answered
Solution:

To solve the given equation 4y = 20, we need to isolate the variable y on one side of the equation.

Let's divide both sides of the equation by 4:

4y/4 = 20/4

y = 5

Therefore, the solution of the given equation is y = 5.

Option A is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given equation is 4y = 20.

We need to find the value of y that satisfies this equation.

To do that, we can use the basic algebraic operation of dividing both sides of the equation by 4.

When we divide both sides of the equation by 4, we get:

4y/4 = 20/4

Simplifying the left-hand side of the equation, we get:

y = 20/4

y = 5

Therefore, the solution of the given equation is y = 5.

Option A is the correct answer, as it represents the value of y that satisfies the equation.

Value of 25

The value of 25 is:

- Option C) 32

Explanation:

- The question asks for the value of 25, which means we need to choose one of the given options that represents the actual value of 25.
- Option A) 3 is not the value of 25, as 25 is a two-digit number and 3 is a single-digit number.
- Option B) 10 is not the value of 25, as 10 is a number that comes after 9, and 25 is a number that comes after 24.
- Option D) 7 is not the value of 25, as 7 is a single-digit number and 25 is a two-digit number.
- Therefore, the correct option is C) 32, as 32 is the actual value of 25 when expressed in base 8 or octal system. In octal system, 25 is represented as 31, and when converted to decimal system, it becomes 3x8+1= 24+1= 25.

Conclusion:

- The value of 25 is 32 when expressed in octal system, which is represented by option C).

    5                        
  • c)
    7                                
  • d)
    -14 
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Anu Kumar answered
To find the multiplicative inverse of 7-2, we need to find a number that when multiplied by 7-2 gives us 1 as the product.

Let x be the multiplicative inverse of 7-2, then we have:

(7-2) * x = 1

Expanding the left-hand side, we get:

7x - 2x = 1

Simplifying, we get:

5x = 1

Dividing both sides by 5, we get:

x = 1/5

Therefore, the multiplicative inverse of 7-2 is 1/5, which is equivalent to 0.2 or 20%.

Option A, 49, is not the correct answer.

Given,
Length (l) = 8 cm
Breadth (b) = 6 cm
Height (h) = 3.5 cm

We know that the volume of a cuboid is given by the formula:
Volume = length × breadth × height

Substituting the given values, we get:
Volume = 8 cm × 6 cm × 3.5 cm
Volume = 168 cm³

Therefore, the volume of the given cuboid is 168 cm³.

Hence, the correct option is (d) 168 cm³.

  • d)
    none of these
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

To solve the given equation, we need to isolate the variable x.

Given equation: 5x + 9 = 5(3x)

Step 1: Distribute the 5 on the right side of the equation:
5x + 9 = 15x

Step 2: Move all the terms containing x to one side of the equation by subtracting 5x from both sides:
9 = 15x - 5x

Simplifying the equation gives:
9 = 10x

Step 3: To solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by 10:
9/10 = x

Simplifying the fraction gives:
x = 0.9

Therefore, the correct answer is option A, -2.

Explanation:
The given equation is 5x + 9 = 5(3x). We can solve this equation step by step to find the value of x. By distributing the 5 on the right side, we get 5x + 9 = 15x. Next, we need to move all the terms containing x to one side of the equation. By subtracting 5x from both sides, we get 9 = 15x - 5x, which simplifies to 9 = 10x. To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 10, giving us 9/10 = x. Simplifying the fraction, we find that x = 0.9. However, this does not match any of the given answer choices. Therefore, the correct answer is none of these (d), not option A (-2).
