Question
Pick out the solution from the values given in the bracket next to each equation. Show that the other values do not satisfy the equation.
`"q"/2 = 7` (7, 2, 10, 14)
Solution
`"q"/2 = 7`
q = 14 is a solution to the given equation because for q = 14,
`"q"/2 = 14/2` = 7 and hence, the equation is satisfied.
q = 7 is not a solution to the given equation because for q = 7,
`"q"/2 = 7/2` and not 7
q = 2 is not a solution to the given equation because for q = 2,
`"q"/2 = 2/2` = 1 and not 7
q = 10 is not a solution to the given equation because for q = 10,
`"q"/2 = 2/2` = 1 and not 7
