How do u describe how to check an algebra question???
I need help ASAP
Substitute the numerical value for the unknown in the original equation.
I got the answer of 22
So how would i put that

Sorry it posted twice
What was the original equation?
To check an algebra question, you can follow these steps:
1. Read the question carefully: Make sure you understand what the question is asking and what information is given.
2. Solve the equation or problem: Use your algebraic skills to solve the equation or problem step by step. Remember to follow the correct order of operations (PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division from left to right, Addition and Subtraction from left to right).
3. Check your solution: Once you have found a solution, substitute it back into the original equation or problem and verify if it satisfies the given conditions. Here's how to check:
- If it's an equation, substitute the value of the variable back into the original equation and see if both sides are equal.
- If it's a word problem, plug the solution back into the problem and see if it makes sense in the context of the problem.
If the equation remains true or the problem's conditions are satisfied, then your solution is correct. Otherwise, you might have made a mistake in solving the equation or problem.
4. Identify any errors: If your solution does not check out, retrace your steps and carefully review each step of your work. Look out for any common mistakes like errors in sign, combining like terms, or incorrectly applying a rule.
Repeat these steps until you confirm that your solution is correct or until you identify your error(s) and correct them. Remember, practice makes perfect, so the more you practice checking your algebraic work, the better you will become at it.
