6) True/False - you could start by dividing by 4 to solve 4x + 5 = 25 but its easier to subtract 5
first

False - division comes last

I'll show you the real steps.

4x + 5 = 25

~Subtract 5 to both sides

4x = 25

~Divide 4 to both sides

x = 6.25

Best of Luck!

yes, gavin is right.

step-by-step explanation:

gavin is correct. 

this problem is about converting 9% per year to how many percent per quarter. the rate is still the same. it only differed in the time period. so, through dimensional analysis,

9% per year  × (1 year / 4 quarters) = 2.25% per quarter

if he was asked to convert 9% per year to how many percent per quarter  compounded quarterly, then you will not simply divide by four. this is because compounding is not linear.

hope this , have a good day. c;
