Is u = 17 a solution to this equation? 0 = 17/u Choices: (A)yes (B)no

Identify Equation After Substitution: We have the equation 0 = 17/u. Identify the equation after substituting u = 17. Substitute 17 for u in 0 = 17/u. Equation: 0 = 17/17Simplify 17/17: Simplify 17/17. 17/17 = 1Check Solution for u=17: We found that 17/17 equals 1. Is u = 17 a solution to the equation 0 = 17/u? For u=17, the equation becomes 0 = 1, which is not true. So, u = 17 is not a solution to the equation 0 = 17/u.
