Question

The numbers that satisfy the equation a =5.

Answer 1

Explanation:

We use an equation to say that two things are equal. An equation always has an equal sign "=". So an equation tells us that the left side is equal to the right side. In this case, we have the following equation:

$a =5$

So the only value that makes this equation to be true is 5, because:

$5=5$

For instance, let's choose another value, say, 8. So substituting:

$6 =5 \ \text{So this statement is false because} \ 6\neq 5$
