What is Known?
Equation and the value of the variable.
What is unknown?
Whether the given value is a solution of the equation or not.
Reasoning:
Put the value of the variable in the given equation. If LHS is equal to the RHS then the equation is satisfied and if it is not that means this given value is not a solution of the equation.
Steps:
(i) \(\begin{align}x + 3 = 0,x = 3\end{align}\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(x+ 3\), R.H.S \(= 0\)
By putting, \(x= 3\)
L.H.S \( =3 + 3= 6 ≠ \)R.H.S
Therefore, “No”, the equation is not satisfied.
(ii) \(\begin{align}x+ 3 = 0,x= 0\end{align}\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(x+ 3\), R.H.S\(= 0\)
By putting, \(x= 0;\)
L.H.S \( =0+3= 3 ≠\)R.H.S
Therefore, “No”, the equation is not satisfied.
(iii) \(\begin{align}x+ 3 = 0, x= -3\end{align}\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(x+ 3\), R.H.S \(= 0\)
By putting, \(x= -3\)
L.H.S \(= -3 + 3 = 0 =\) R.H.S
Therefore, “Yes”, the equation is satisfied.
(iv) \(\begin{align}x– 7 = 1, x= 7\end{align}\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(x\,– 7\), R.H.S \(= 1\)
By putting, \(x= 7\);
L.H.S \(= 7 \,– 7 = 0 ≠\) R.H.S
Therefore, “No”, the equation is not satisfied.
(v) \(\begin{align}x– 7 = 1, x= 8\end{align}\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(x– 7\), R.H.S \(= 1\)
By putting, \(x= 8;\)
L.H.S \(= 8 \,– 7 = 1 =\) R.H.S
Therefore, “Yes”, the equation is satisfied.
(vi) \(\begin{align}5x= 25, x= 0,\end{align}\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(5x\), R.H.S\( = 25\)
By putting, \(x= 0;\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(5 \times 0=0 ≠ \)R.H.S
Therefore, “No”, the equation is not satisfied.
(vii) \(\begin{align}5x= 25, x= 5,\end{align}\)
L.H.S \(= 5x\), R.H.S \(= 25\)
By putting, \(x= 5;\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(5 \times 5 = 25\)= R.H.S
Therefore, “Yes”, the equation is satisfied.
(viii) \(\begin{align}5x = 25, x= – 5,\end{align}\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(5x\), R.H.S \(= 25\)
By putting, \(x= – 5;\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(5 \times \left( { - 5} \right) = - 25≠\)R.H.S
Therefore, “No”, the equation is not satisfied.
(ix) \(\begin{align}\frac{m}{3} = 2, m= – 6,\end{align}\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(\begin{align}\frac{m}{3}\end{align}\), R.H.S \(= 2\)
By putting, \(m\)\(= – 6;\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(\begin{align}\frac{{ - 6}}{3}=−2≠\end{align}\) R.H.S
Therefore, “No”, the equation is not satisfied.
(x) \(\begin{align}\frac{m}{3} = 2, m=0\end{align}\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(\begin{align}\frac{m}{3}\end{align}\), R.H.S \(= 2\)
By putting, \(m= 0;\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(\begin{align}\frac{0}{3}=0≠\end{align}\)R.H.S
Therefore, “No”, the equation is not satisfied.
(xi) \(\begin{align}\frac{m}{3} = 2 m= 6,\end{align}\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(\begin{align}\frac{m}{3}\end{align}\), R.H.S \(= 2\)
By putting, \(m\) \(= 6;\)
L.H.S \(=\) \(\begin{align}\frac{6}{3}= 2 =\end{align}\) R.H.S
Therefore, “Yes”, the equation is satisfied

What is unknown?
Whether the given value is a solution of the equation or not.
What is Known?
Equation and the value of the variable.
Reasoning:
Put the value of the given variable in the equation. If LHS is equal to the RHS then the equation is satisfied and if it is not that means this given value is not a solution of the equation
Steps:
a) Here, \(n+ 5\) is L.H.S, \(19\) is R.H.S and \(n= 1\) (given)
L.H.S = \(n+ 5,\)
By putting, \(n= 1,\)
L.H.S \(= 1 + 5 = 6 ≠\) R.H.S
L.H.S \(≠\) R.H.S, so \(n= 1\) is not a solution of the equation.
b) Here, \(7n+ 5\) is L.H.S, \(19\) is R.H.S and \(n= – 2\) (given)
L.H.S = \(7n+ 5\),
By putting, \(n= \,– 2\),
L.H.S\( =7 \times (−2) + 5= −9 ≠\) R.H.S
As, L.H.S \(≠\) R.H.S, so \(n= \,– 2\) is not a solution of the equation.
c) Here, \(7n+ 5\) is L.H.S, \(19\) is R.H.S and \(n= 2\) (given)
L.H.S = \(7n+ 5\),
By putting, \(n= 2\),
L.H.S \(= 7 \times (2) + 5 = 19 = \)R.H.S
As, L.H.S = R.H.S, so \(n= 2\) is a solution of the equation.
d) Here, \(4p\,– 3\) is L.H.S, \(13\) is R.H.S and \(p= 1\) (given)
L.H.S = \(4p\,– 3,\)
By putting, \(p= 1\),
L.H.S \(=4 \times (1)\, – 3 = 1 ≠ \) R.H.S
As, L.H.S \(≠\) R.H.S, so \(p= 1\) is not a solution of the equation.
e) Here, \(4p– 3\) is L. H.S, \(13\) is R.H.S and \(p= -4\) (given)
L.H.S \(=4p– 3\),
By putting, \(p= 1\),
L.H.S \(=4 \times (-4) – 3 = -19 ≠\) R.H.S
As, L.H.S \(≠\) R.H.S, so \(p= 1\) is not a solution.
f) Here, \(4p– 3\) is L. H.S, \(13\) is R.H.S and \(p= 0\) (given data)
L.H.S \(=\) \(4p\,– 3\),
By putting, \(p= 0\),
L.H.S \(=4 \times(0)–3=−3≠ \)R.H.S
As, L.H.S\(≠\)R.H.S, so \(p= 0\) is not a solution of the equation.

Equations
What is unknown?
Solution of the equation or the value of the variable.
Reasoning:
Put the different values of the variable in the given equation. If LHS is equal to the RHS then the equation is satisfied and if it is not that means this variable is not a solution of the equation.
Steps:
(i) \(5p + 2 = 17\)
\(5p + 2=\) L.H.S
By putting, \(p= 0\),
\(5 \times 0+2=2≠17\)
By putting, \(p=1\),
\(5 \times (1)+2=7≠17\)
By putting, \(p= 2\),
\(5 \times (2) + 2 = 12 ≠\) R.H.S
By putting, \(p= 3\),
\( 5\times (3) + 2 = 17 =\) R.H.S
Therefore, \(p= 3\) is a solution of the equation.
(ii) \(3m-{\rm{1}}4 = 4\)
\(3m-{\rm{1}}4=\) L.H.S
By putting, \(m= 5\),
\(3 \times (5)–14=1≠6\)
By putting, \(m= 6\),
\(3 \times (6)–14 =4 =\)R.H.S.
Therefore, \(m= 6\) is a solution of the equation.
