Question

Tell whether the given number is a solution of the equation. $\frac { 3 + x } { 9 } - x = \frac { 1 } { 3 }$ ; $x = 0$
A) non-quantified solution
B) unequal solution
C) not a solution
D) solution
E) none of these

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Substituting x = 0 in the equation,
$$\frac{3+0}{9}-0=\frac{1}{3}$$
$$\frac{3}{9}=\frac{1}{3}$$
$$\frac{1}{3}=\frac{1}{3}$$
Therefore, x = 0 is a solution to the equation. Hence, the correct answer is D.
