OpenStudy (31356):

If it has a variable... then it is open... yours has a variable; z, so it IS open

OpenStudy (31356):

Anytime :D

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

It's open, not because it has a variable, but because there is limited number of values (in this case one value only) of the variable that will make it true.

OpenStudy (31356):

Oh sorry, I must be thinking of something else, anyways thanks for the correction though :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which number is a solution to the equation 2x - 5 = 11? 3 -3 8 -8 @31356

OpenStudy (31356):

It's 8

OpenStudy (31356):

Plug in your numbers

OpenStudy (31356):

2*8-5=? It's 11 in this case. :D

OpenStudy (31356):

Indeed @mathstudent55 :D

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Plug in each number for x. Then evaluate the left side. Whichever choice makes the left side equal to 11 is the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4y = -24 6 -6 96 -96

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Once again, try each choice on the left side: What is 4 * 6 4 * (-6) 4 * 96 4 * (-96) The one that equals -24 is the answer.

Thanks for your help @mathstudent55
