                                              24 + 3x = 3x + 3(7 - 1)

Eliminate the parentheses:    24 + 3x = 3x + 3(6)

                                              24 + 3x = 3x + 18

Subtract  3x  from each side:       <em>24  =  18</em>

Look at that for a second.  Can ANY value of 'x' make 24 equal to 18 ?
I don't think so.
There's NO number that makes the equation a true statement.

That's just another way to say: "The equation has NO solution."

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

1, 2 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

t -----> the number of hours the job takes

C(t) -----> the total cost for the service

we have

C(t)=125t+95

This is the equation of a line in slope intercept form

where

The slope m is equal to m=125\ \frac{\$}{h}

The y-intercept is the point (0,95) ---> The cost is $95 for the value of t equal zero (fee)

therefore

<u><em>The statements that are true</em></u>

1 a house call fee costs $95

2 the plumber charges $125 per hour

3 the number of hours the job takes is represented by t
