Hey ! there

Answer:

  • Value of s is -36 / 11 .

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we are provided with an equation that is -( 11s - 4 ) / ( 8 ) = 5 . And we are asked to solve the equation for value of s .

Solution : -

[tex] \quad\longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac { - (11s - 4)}{8} = 5[/tex]

Step 1 : Multiplying with 8 on both sides :

[tex] \quad\longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{( - 11s - 4)}{ \cancel{8} } \times \cancel {8} = 5 \times 8[/tex]

Simplifying it ,

[tex] \quad\longrightarrow \qquad \: - (11s - 4) = 40[/tex]

Step 2 : Dividing with -1 on both sides :

[tex] \quad\longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{ \cancel{- }(11s - 4)}{ \cancel{- }1} = \dfrac{40}{ - 1} [/tex]

We get ,

[tex] \quad\longrightarrow \qquad \:11s - 4 = - 40[/tex]

Step 3 : Adding 4 on both sides :

[tex] \quad\longrightarrow \qquad \:11s - \cancel{4 }+ \cancel{4} = - 40 + 4[/tex]

On further calculations , We get :

[tex] \quad\longrightarrow \qquad \:11s = - 36[/tex]

Step 4 : Dividing with 11 on both sides :

[tex] \quad\longrightarrow \qquad \: \dfrac{ \cancel{11}s}{ \cancel{11}} = \dfrac{ - 36}{11} [/tex]

Here we get ,

[tex] \quad\longrightarrow \qquad \: \orange{\underline{\boxed{ \frak{s = \dfrac{ - 36}{11}}}}}[/tex]

Verifying : -

Now we are verifying our answer whether it is wrong or correct . So ,

  • - ( 11s - 4 ) / 8 = 5

Substituting value of s :

  • - ( 11 × -36/11 - 4 ) / 8 = 5

By cancelling 11 with 11 we get :

  • - ( -36 - 4 ) / 8 = 5

Solving parenthesis :

  • - ( -40 ) / 8 = 5

Removing parenthesis :

  • 40 / 8 = 5

Now , by dividing 40 by 8 , We get :

  • 5 = 5

  • L.H.S = R.H.S

  • Hence , Verified .

Therefore , our answer is correct .
