is the given number a solution to the given equation yes or no?

4x= 8; 7 I would have to say no.

I agree. x does not equal 7 in this problem.

Solve using the elimination method. Show your work. If the system has no solution or an infinite number of solutions, state this.

-12x + 27y = 60
-6x – 6y = 30

To determine if the given number is a solution to the equation, you need to substitute the value into the equation and check if it satisfies the equation.

Given equation: 4x = 8

Substituting the given number: 7
4(7) = 28

Since 28 is not equal to 8, the given number 7 is not a solution to the equation 4x = 8. Therefore, your answer is correct, and it is no.
