The notion of (ψ, γ)-stability was introduced in [V. A. Faiziev, Th. M. Rassias, and P. K. Sahoo, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc., 354, 4455 (2002)]. It was shown that the Cauchy equation f(xy) = f(x) + f(y) is (ψ, γ)-stable both on any Abelian group and on any meta-Abelian group. In [V. A. Faiziev and P. K. Sahoo, Publ. Math. Debrecen, 75, 6 (2009)], it was proved that the Cauchy equation is (ψ, γ)-stable on step-two solvable groups and step-three nilpotent groups. In the present paper, we prove a more general result and show that the Cauchy equation is (ψ, γ)-stable on solvable groups.
