Simply substitute the given number for all the equations.
17) 5b + 1 = 16 where b is -3
5(-3) + 1 = 16
-15 + 1 = 16
-14 ≠ 16
So, the given number is not a solution.
19) 2 = 10 - 4y where y is 2
2 = 10 - 4(2)
2 = 10 - 8
2 = 2
The given number is a solution.
21) -6b + 5 = 1 where b is 0.5
-6(0.5) + 5 = 1
-3 + 5 = 1
2 ≠ 1
The given number is not a solution.
N + d = 30
0.05n + 0.10d = 2.20
