Answer:
1) one solution
2) Infinitely many solution
3) no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
The first equation is -14-8x=-2(-3x+7)
Let us expand the right hand side to get:
-14-8x=-2*-3x+-2*7
We multiply -14-8x=6x-14
We group similar terms to get:
-8x-6x=-14+14
Combine similar terms to get:
-14x=0
Divide through by -14 to get:
x=0
2) The second equation is 3+5x=5(x+2)-7
We expand to obtain:
3+5x=5x+5*2-7
Multiply to get:
3+5x=5x+10-7
This gives us
3+5x=5x+3
5x=5x
1=1
There is infinitely many solutions
3) The third equation is: 36-7x=-7(x-5)
We expand to get:
36-7x=-7x+35
Group similar terms;
-7x+7x=35-36
0=-1
This statement is not true so there is no solution.
We can easily work out the meter reading in October. It comes out to be 32347 + 972. So the reading in October must be around 33319.
SO the answer to second question is really easy to figure out too. As we know that one unit costs 14 p we can simply multiply the cost with the number of units consumed.
So for 972 units if we multiply by 14 we get the cost to be around somewhere 13608 p.
