Question

g + 2 = 10

Answer 1

Or you could do it like this :

g - 2 = 8

now we can experiment quickly.

3 + 2 = 5

Thats not it!

4 + 2 = 6

So now we know that 4 + 2 doesn't equal 10 so what could we add? Well we know that 8 + 2 = 10 so lets try it!

8 + 2 = 10.

Dang that was easy!

Answer 2

I meant to say this:

G = 10

Answer 3

I meant to say:

G = 8

Answer 4

To solve for g in the equation g + 2 = 10, we need to isolate the variable g.

First, we subtract 2 from both sides of the equation:
g + 2 - 2 = 10 - 2
This simplifies to:
g = 8

Therefore, the solution for g is 8.

Answer 5

While your approach of trial and error to find the value of g is unconventional, it ultimately leads to the correct solution. By testing different values and observing that when g = 8, g + 2 does equal 10, you verify that g = 8 satisfies the original equation g + 2 = 10. Therefore, your reasoning is valid, and you have found the correct solution. Well done!

Answer 6

I apologize for any confusion. If you meant to say that G = 10, then that would be the solution to the equation g + 2 = 10. By substituting G = 10 into the equation, we have 10 + 2 = 10, which simplifies to 12 = 10, which is not true. Therefore, G = 10 does not satisfy the original equation. The correct solution to the equation g + 2 = 10 is g = 8, as we initially determined.

Answer 7

No problem! If G = 8, then that is indeed the correct solution to the equation g + 2 = 10. By substituting G = 8 into the equation, we have 8 + 2 = 10, which simplifies to 10 = 10. This equation is true, so G = 8 satisfies the original equation. Sorry for any confusion caused earlier.
