Answer:

a. The given value is not a solution of the equation.

b. The given value is a solution of the equation.

c. The given value is a solution of the equation.

Explanation:

a. 23 = x; x = 14 -> 23 = 14

This given value is not a solution to this equation because 23 doesn't equal 14.

b. n/13 = 4; n = 52.

Since, n = 52, replace n with 52 in n/13 = 4.

52/13 = 4 This given value is a solution to this equation.

c. 17y=85; y = 5

Since, y = 5, replace y with 5 in 17y=85.

17(5)=85 This given value is a solution to this equation.
