Answer: C, there is no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to distribute on the left side of the equation. 5(x+4) = 5x - 3 when distributed becomes 5x + 20 = 5x - 3. Next you want to get rid of the variable on one side, but since its the same, when you subtract 5x from both sides you get 20 = -3, which is not equal, meaning there is no solution.

5(x+4)=5x-3\\5x+20=5x-3\\5x+20-5x+3=0\\0+23=0\\23=0

So the answer is C. There is no solution, because the equation is false

A and B choices both have the answer, the value of x.

D choice only when the equation is true like 2=2.

How do I solve it. I don't understand where I should start the problem I have the formulas
Luda [366]
V=length times width times height
wait, we need it in yards
3ft=1yard
so height=1

v=45 times 30 times 1
v=1350 cubic yards
1 cubic yard=201.974 gallons
so times both sides by 1350
272664.9 gallons
per every 5000 gallons of water we have 1 of chlorine
so 272664.9/5000=54.53298
so we need about 54.5 gallons or 55 gallons of cholrine

The data surveyed is the exact mass, in grams, of food eaten by each person each day.

This type of data is continous, not discrete. The mass can take any value within the domain of positive real numbers. It represents a physic variable, and they are always continous.
