\"\"

\

Find the value of \"\".

\

Check the solution when differente values of \"\".

\

a.

\

The equation is \"\".

\

Case(i):

\

Let \"\".

\

\"\"                  (Original equation)

\

\"\"                  (Distributive property: \"\")

\

\"\"             (Substitute \"\" in the equation)

\

\"\"                      (Multiply)

\

Therefore, the value of \"\" does not satisfy the equation.

\

Case(ii):

\

Let \"\".

\

\"\"                  (Original equation)

\

\"\"                  (Distributive property: \"\")

\

\"\"       (Substitute \"\" in the equation)

\

\"\"                   (Multiply)

\

\"\"

\

Therefore, the value of \"\" has satisfied the equation.

\

The equation is an identitical when \"\".

\

\"\"

\

b.

\

The equation is \"\".

\

Case(i):

\

Let \"\".

\

\"\"   (Original equation)

\

\"\"      (Distributive property: \"\")

\

\"\"   (Substitute \"\" in the equation)

\

\"\"     (Multiply)

\

\"\"                   (Cancel common terms)

\

Therefore, the value of \"\" does not satisfied the equation.

\

Case(ii):

\

Let \"\".

\

\"\"    (Original equation)

\

\"\"      (Distributive property: \"\")

\

\"\"   (Substitute \"\" in the equation)

\

\"\"     (Multiply)

\

\"\"                   (Cancel common terms)

\

Therefore, the value of \"\" is satisfied the equation.

\

The equation is an identitcal when \"\".\"\"

\

a. The equation is an identitical when \"\".

\

b. The equation is an identitcal when \"\".
