Question
Check whether the value given in the bracket is a solution to the given equation or not:
4p − 3 = 13 (p = 0)
Advertisements
Solution
4p − 3 = 13 (p = 0)
Putting p = 0
L.H.S. = 4p − 3
= (4 × 0) − 3
= −3 ≠ 13
As L.H.S. ≠ R.H.S.,
Therefore, p = 0 is not a solution of the given equation, 4p − 3 = 13.
