Question

Equation $y+7=9$ is satisfied for the value of a variable $y=-1$. True or False?

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

For the value of variable $y=-1$, the equation $y+7=9$ will be as follows:

$$\begin{gathered} y+7=9 \\ \left(-1\right)+7=9 \\ 6\ne 9 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, Left-hand side $\left(6\right)$ is not equal to the Right-hand side $\left(9\right)$,so , the equation is not satisfied for the value of $y=-1$.Therefore, the statement is false.
