My algebra math book has this math problem > 4a - 3b = 21.
i am supposed to figure out if it is true or false. but the thing is, i do not know how to do this so that i can find out if it is true or not.
!

The value of (4a - 3b) depends on what 'a' and 'b' are.

There are many combinations of 'a' and 'b' that make
(4a - 3b) equal to 21, and a whole bunch of others
that don't.

The equation in your question is not true OR false until you know
what 'a' and 'b' are.  I suspect that right next to this problem in your
math book, it gives you some values for 'a' and 'b'.

Here are a few examples of how to do it:

1).  I tell you that  a=2  and  b=1.
You take those numbers, and write them in place
of 'a' and 'b' in the left side of the equation:

                   4a - 3b

                  4(2) - 3(1)

                    8   -   3  =  5

If  a=2  and  b=1, then the left side of the equation is  5, not 21,
and the equation is false. 



2).  I tell you that  a=5  and  b=4.
You take those numbers, and write them in place
of 'a' and 'b' in the left side of the equation:

                       4a - 3b

                       4(5) - 3(4)

                         20 -  12  =  8

If  a=5  and  b=4, then the left side of the equation is  8, not 21,
and the equation is false. 



3).  I tell you that  a=6  and  b=1.
You take those numbers, and write them in place
of 'a' and 'b' in the left side of the equation:

                   4a - 3b

                 4(6) - 3(1)

                   24  - 3  =  21

If  a=6  and  b=1, then the left side of the equation is  21,
and the equation is TRUE.

This is not the only possible pair of numbers for 'a' and 'b'
that make the equation true.  There are tons of possibilities.
Look around the question in your book and see if it gives you
values for 'a' and 'b' to test in the equation.

Hi! mark me brainliest if i : )y = 0.213x – 352.0    represents this linear model shown in the data table.plug in the values of x into the equation for a double check.let's try 1980.y = 0.213(1980) – 352.0y = 69.74which is closest to the 70.1 whereas other options do not satisfy the condition.
