Q. What value of v is a solution to this equation?7v=56Choices:(A) v=8(B) v=9
Identify Operation: Identify the operation needed to isolate the variable v. The equation is 7v=56, which means 7 times some number v equals 56. To find the value of v, we need to perform the inverse operation of multiplication, which is division.
Divide by 7: Divide both sides of the equation by 7 to solve for v. To isolate v, we divide both sides of the equation by 7. This gives us v=756.
Perform Division: Perform the division to find the value of v. Calculating 56 divided by 7 gives us v=8.
Check Solution: Check the solution by substituting v back into the original equation.Substitute v=8 back into the original equation to check if 7v equals 56. This gives us 7×8, which equals 56. Since this is true, our solution is correct.
