Question

Y - 8 = -10 How do I verify the solution ?

Answer 1

Answer:

y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

SOLUTION :-

Solve the equation.

• Add 8 to both sides in order to isolate the equation.

$=> y - 8 + 8 = -10 + 8$

$=> y = -2$

∴ y = -2

VERIFICATION :-

To verify the solution of y , just put the solution (y = -2) in place of y in equation and check whether L.H.S = R.H.S.

L.H.S :-

-2 - 8 = -10

R.H.S. :-

-10 (already given)

⇒L.H.S. = R.H.S. (verified)
