Question
Check whether the value given in the bracket is a solution to the given equation or not.
$4p – 3 = 13 (p = 1)$

Answer

$4p – 3 = 13 (p = 1)$
$L.H.S. = 4p – 3$
$= 4 (1) – 3 . . . .$ [When $p = 1]$
$= 4 – 3$
$= 1$
$R.H.S. = 13$
$\because L.H.S. \neq R.H.S.$
$\therefore p = 1$ is not a solution to the given equation. $4p – 3 = 13$
