Select all the equations where [tex]$c=9$[/tex] is a solution. Choose 2 answers:

A. [tex]4 - c = 5[/tex]
B. [tex]20 = 14 + c[/tex]
C. [tex]15 = c - 6[/tex]
D. [tex]\frac{c}{3} = 3[/tex]
E. [tex]36 = 4c[/tex]



Answer :

To determine which equations hold true when [tex]\( c = 9 \)[/tex], let's substitute [tex]\( c = 9 \)[/tex] into each equation and check for validity.

1. Equation (A): [tex]\( 4 - c = 5 \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ 4 - 9 = 5 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ -5 = 5 \quad \text{(False)} \][/tex]

2. Equation (B): [tex]\( 20 = 14 + c \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ 20 = 14 + 9 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 20 = 23 \quad \text{(False)} \][/tex]

3. Equation (C): [tex]\( 15 = c - 6 \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ 15 = 9 - 6 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 15 = 3 \quad \text{(False)} \][/tex]

4. Equation (D): [tex]\( \frac{c}{3} = 3 \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ \frac{9}{3} = 3 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 3 = 3 \quad \text{(True)} \][/tex]

5. Equation (E): [tex]\( 36 = 4c \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ 36 = 4 \times 9 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 36 = 36 \quad \text{(True)} \][/tex]

Among the given equations, equations (D) and (E) are satisfied when [tex]\( c = 9 \)[/tex].

So the correct answers are:
- (D) [tex]\( \frac{c}{3} = 3 \)[/tex]
- (E) [tex]\( 36 = 4c \)[/tex]
