Question

Ava says that 100
12 is equivalent to 2 (52 – 6). Is this true or false?
O True
False

Answer 1

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the first equation is 10x - 12, you need to solve both equations in order to see if the equations are equivalent from each other.

$10x-12$

$10x-12=2(5x-6)$

$=2(5x-6)$

Then...

$2\times(52-6)$

Use Order of Operations...

$52-6=46$

$2\times46=92$

$2(5x-6)<96$

Therefore "false" or the second option is your answer.

Hope this helps.
