4(3x−1)=3+8x−11

Simplify

4(3x−1)=3+8x−11

(4)(3x)+(4)(−1)=3+8x+−11(Distribute)

12x+−4=3+8x+−11

12x−4=(8x)+(3+−11)(Combine Like Terms)

12x−4=8x+−8

12x−4=8x−8

Subtract 8x from both sides.

12x−4−8x=8x−8−8x

4x−4=−8

Add 4 to both sides.

4x−4+4=−8+4

4x=−4

Divide both sides by 4.

4x/4=−4/4

Select whether the equation has a solution or not.

Answer: The equation has a solution .

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

$\sqrt{x+1}=7-2\sqrt{x}$

Squaring on both the sides, we get that,

$x+1=(7-2\sqrt{x})^2\\\\x+1=49+4x-28\sqrt{x}\\\\3x+48-28\sqrt{x}=0$

Let $\sqrt{x}=y\implies x=y^2$

So, our equation becomes,

$3y^2-28y+48=0\\\\y=\dfrac{14}{3}\pm \dfrac{2\sqrt{13}}{3}\\\\\sqrt{x}=\dfrac{14}{3}\pm \dfrac{2\sqrt{13}}{3}\\\\x=(\dfrac{14}{3}\pm \dfrac{2\sqrt{13}}{3})^2$
