Yes or no

1 answer

To determine if \( u = 9 \) is a solution to the equation

\[ \frac{7}{u} = 63, \]

we can substitute \( u \) with 9:

\[ \frac{7}{9} \stackrel{?}{=} 63. \]

Next, we calculate the left side:

\[ \frac{7}{9} \approx 0.7778, \]

which is not equal to 63.

Thus, the answer is no; \( u = 9 \) is not a solution to the equation.
