Full solution

Q. Is b=6b = -6 a solution to this equation?\newlineb+7=2b + 7 = 2\newlineChoices:\newline(A)yes\newline(B)no
  1. Identify Substituted Equation: We have the equation b+7=2b + 7 = 2. Identify the equation after substituting b=6b = -6.\newlineSubstitute 6-6 for bb in b+7=2b + 7 = 2.\newlineEquation: (6)+7=2(-6) + 7 = 2
  2. Simplify Substituted Equation: Simplify (6)+7.(-6) + 7.(6)+7=1(-6) + 7 = 1
  3. Check Solution Validity: We found: (6)+7=1(-6) + 7 = 1\newlineIs b=6b = -6 a solution to the equation b+7=2b + 7 = 2?\newlineFor b=6b = -6, the equation becomes 1=21 = 2, which is not true.\newlineSo, b=6b = -6 is not a solution to the equation b+7=2b + 7 = 2.
