Problem

Solve for y in the equation \$9/5\$ ​y = \$9/5\$​ using the Multiplicative Identity Property.

2

Step

The given equation is

\$9/5\$ ​y = \$9/5\$​

3

Step

Divide \$ 9/5 \$ both sides of the equation:

\$(( 9/5 )y) /( 9/5 ) = ( 9/5 ) / ( 9/5 )\$​

4

Step

Symbolically, Multiplicative Identity Property can be expressed as:

a⋅1 = a, (where a is any real number)

5

Hint

Recognize that multiplying any expression by 1 does not change the expression.

6

Step

According to the multiplicative identity property

( y ) ( 1 ) = 1 simplifies to y = 1

7

Solution

So, the final simplified expression is y = 1.

Choices

9

Choice-A

The error lies in the absence of the correct multiplicative identity; the outcome should be y = 1, not y = 2

Wrong y = 2

10

Choice-B

This is incorrect because it does not correspond to the multiplicative identity of the given equation where we got the result as y = 1, not y = 4

Wrong y = 4

11

Choice-C

This is incorrect because it does not correspond to the multiplicative identity of the given equation where we got the result as y = 1, not y = 0

Wrong y = 0

12

Choice-D

This is the accurate choice for the multiplicative identity, yielding y = 1 as the outcome

Correct y = 1
