Exercise 2 Page 246

Substitute each value of c one at a time into the equation to verify if it is true or false.

c=33

Practice makes perfect

We want to verify if any of the given values of c are solutions of this equation. We will replace the variable with each value from the set and check if the equation is true for any of them.

c c-8=25 Simplify True or False?
17 17-8? =25 9 ≠ 25 False
28 28-8? =25 20 ≠ 25 False
33 33-8? =25 25 = 25 True
35 35-8? =25 27 ≠ 25 False

The equation is true when c=33. This means that c=33 is the only solution to the equation out of the given values.
