Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • a. 3x-5= 3x + 5
  • b. 3x-5= 3x - 5
  • c. 3x - 5 = 2x+5
  • d. 3x-5 = 2x + 10

To find:

  • Which one of the linear equations have no solution.

Solution:

a)  3x-5= 3x + 5

Add 5 to both sides

3x-5= 3x + 5

3x - 5 + 5 = 3x + 5 + 5

Simplify

(Add the numbers)

3x - 5 + 5 = 3x + 5 + 5

3x = 3x + 5 + 5

(Add the numbers)

3x  = 3x + 5 + 5

3x = 3x + 10

Subtract 3x from both sides

3x = 3x + 10

3x - 3x = 3x + 10 - 3

Simplify

(Combine like terms)

3x -3x = 3x + 10 - 3

0 = 3x + 10 - 3

(Combine like terms)

0 = 3x + 10 - 3

0 = 10

The input is a contradiction: it has no solutions

b)  3x-5= 3x - 5

Since both sides equal, there are infinitely many solutions.

c)  3x - 5 = 2x+5

Add 5 to both sides

3x = 2x + 5 + 5

Simplify  2x + 5 + 5 to 2x + 10

3x = 2x + 10

Subtract 2x from both sides

3x - 2x = 10

Simplify 3x - 2x to x.

x = 10

d) 3x-5 = 2x + 10

Add 5 to both sides

3x = 2x + 10 + 5

Simplify 2x + 10 + 5 to 2x + 15

3x = 2x + 15

Subtract 2x from both sides

3x - 2x = 15

Simplify 3x -2x to x.

x = 15

--------------------------------------------

Answer:

As you can see all c and d both have solutions, eliminating them as options. Option B has infinite solutions leaving Option A which has no solutions.

Therefore, <u><em>Option A</em></u> is the linear equation that has no solution.

Answer:

x=5, y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

You simply write down what you see:

3x - 4y + 4x - 5y = 17

2x - 3y + 3x - 5y = 9

Then you simplify by grouping the x and the y terms:

7x - 9y = 17

5x - 8y = 9

Now you want to get equal amounts of x or y. Let's go for x. If we multiply the top eq with 5 and the bottom one with -7, we get:

35x - 45y = 85

-35x  + 56y = -63

-------------------------+ now we can add them:

11y = 22 divide by -11

y = 2

So 7x - 18 = 17, x =5

Finally, it makes sense to double check by filling in these answers in the original equations, just to see if no mistakes were made:

3*5 - 4*2 = 7

4*5 - 5*2 = 10

7+10 = 17: ok!

2*5 - 3*2 = 4

3*5 - 5*2 = 5

4+5 = 9: ok!

4= -2(x-2) +4 please help I’ll give you points!
Elina [12.6K]
<h3>Solution:</h3>

4 = -2(x-2) + 4

or, 4 = -2x + 4 + 4

or, 4 = -2x + 8

or, 4 - 8 = -2x

or, -4 = -2x

or, -4/-2 = x

or, 2 = x

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The value of x is 2.
