Check whether the given value of x in the solution to the equation.

Yes

Step-by-step explanation: Here, we want to decide

if 2 is a solution for the equation 4n - 3 = -2n + 9.

We can do this by simply plugging in 2 for n.

If the statement holds true, then 2 is a solution.

Plugging in 2 for n, we have 4(2) - 3 = -2(2) + 9.

Remember that a negative times a positive is a negative.

So we have 8 - 3 = -4 + 9.

Simplifying further, we have 5 = 5.

Notice that 5 = 5 is a true statement.

So yes, 2 is a solution for the equation 4n - 3 = -2n + 9.
