Q. Is a=4 a solution to this equation?a76=3Choices:(A) yes(B) no
Substitute and Identify: We have the equation 76/a=3. Identify the equation after substituting a=4. Substitute 4 for a in 76/a=3. Equation after substitution: 76/4=3
Verify Solution: We found that 476=19. Is a=4 a solution to the equation a76=3? For a=4, the equation becomes 19=3, which is not true. So, a=4 is not a solution to the equation a76=3.
