6. Check whether the value given in brackets is solution to the given
equation or not
(a) n - 9 = 19 ( n = 10 )
Ans: Putting n = 10 in LHS
n − 9 = 10 − 9 = 1
1 9
n = 10 is not a solution for the given equation n − 9 = 19 .

(b) 17n + 5 = 25 ( n = 2 )
Ans: Putting n = 2 in LHS
17n + 5 = 34 + 5 = 39
39  25

n = 2 is not a solution for the given equation 17n + 5 = 25 .

7. Give the first step to solve the following equations and then solve the
equation.
(a) P + 9 = 3
Ans: Subtracting 9 from both sides, we obtain
P+9=3
P +9−9 =3−9
P = −6

(b) a - 12 = 15
Ans: Adding 12 both sides, we obtain
a − 12 + 12 = 15 + 12
a = 27

11. In an isosceles triangle base angles are equal if the vertex angle is 500 .
What are base angles?
Ans: Let us assume the base angles of the isosceles triangle as x .
We know that
x + x + 500 = 1800
2x + 500 = 1800
2x = 1300

16. Construct 3 equations starting with x = 5 .
Ans: X=5
Multiplying both sides by 5 .
5x = 25......( i )
Subtract 5 on both sides
5x − 5 = 25 − 5
5x − 5 = 20......( ii )
Divide both sides by 2
5x − 2

Here ( i ) , ( ii ) and ( iii ) are three equations.

17. Solve 3m - 18 = 6 by trail and error method.


Ans: Put m = 1
3 (1) − 18 = 6
3 − 18 = 6
−15  6
Put m = 2
3 ( 2 ) − 18 = 6
6 − 18 = 6
−12  6
Put m = 6
3 ( 6 ) − 18 = 6
18 − 18 = 6
06
Put m = 8
3 ( 8 ) − 18 = 6
24 − 18 = 6
6=6
m = 8 is solution of the given equation.

Cross multiplying with 4 on both sides, we get
x = 64

(b) If you take away 5 from 5 times a number you get 50 .


Ans: Let the number be y .
5y − 5 = 50
Transferring 5 from LHS to RHS.
5y = 50 + 5
5y = 55
Dividing by 5 on both sides.
