Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Solution:-

- There are two ways to verify whether the value of ( h ) assumed to be equal to 9 satisfies the given equation:

13 + h = 21

First method: Solving for ( h ) using the given equation

1 ) Subtract ( 13 ) on both sides of the equation:

13 - 13 + h = 21 - 13

0 + h = 8

h = 8

2 ) Compare the evaluated value of ( h ) with the assumed value:

8 ≠ 9

3 ) Conclude: The given value of ( h ) is not a solution of the given equation.

Second method: Plug and compare

1) Plug the assumed value of h = 9 into the given equation:

13 + ( 9 ) = 21

22 = 21

2) For the equality to be true then the both right and left hand side of the " = " must be of same numerical value:

22 ≠ 21

3) Conclude: The given value of ( h ) is not a solution of the given equation.
