Answer 1

$\textbf{Your answer }$

___________________________

$4 y - 3 = 17 \\ \\ Given \: y = 2 \\ \\ 4 ( 2 ) - 3 = 17 \\ \\ 8 - 3 = 17 \\ \\ 5 \:is \:not \:equal\: to\: 17 \\ \\ The \: equation \: is \: not \: maintained !$

Answer 2

It is given that y = 2 ,

and 4y - 3 = 17

Substitute y = 2 in given equation ,

4y - 3 = 17

=> 4×2 - 3 = 17

=> 8 - 3 = 17

=> 5 = 17 [ False ]

Therefore ,

y = 2 is not a solution of given

equation.
