6x+1=2(x+3)+4x has no solution because if you simplify it you get 6x+1=6x+3 which can not have any solution, since anything you substitute for x will not give you a solution.
4x-1=4(x+3) also has no solution. if you simplify you get 4x-1=4x+3 so no value that you substitute for x will give you a solution

Answer: The correct options are

(B) $6x+1=2(x+3)+4x$

(D) $4x-1=4(x+3)$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to choose all the linear equations that have no solution.

To find the number of solutions, we must solve the equations first.

(A) The given equation is

$2(x+5)-7=3(x-2)\\\\\Rightarrow 2x+10-7=3x-2\\\\\Rightarrow 2x+3=3x-2\\\\\Rightarrow 3x-2x=3+2\\\\\Rightarrow x=5.$

So, this equation has one solution.

Option (A) is not correct.

(B) The given equation is

$6x+1=2(x+3)+4x\\\\\Rightarrow 6x+1=2x+6+4x\\\\\Rightarrow 6x+1=6x+6\\\\\Rightarrow 1=6,$ not true.

So, this equation has no solution.

Option (B) is CORRECT.

(C) The given equation is

$5x+10=5(x+2)\\\\\Rightarrow 5x+10=5x+10\\\\\Rightarrow 0=0,$ which is always true.

So, this equation has infinite number of solutions.

Option (C) is not correct.

(D) The given equation is

$4x-1=4(x+3)\\\\\Rightarrow 4x-1=4x+12\\\\\Rightarrow -1=12,$ not true.

So, this equation will have no solution.

Option (D) is CORRECT.

(E) The given equation is

$3(2x+4)=8x+12-2x\\\\\Rightarrow 6x+12=6x+12\\\\\Rightarrow 12=12,$ which is always true.

So, this equation will have infinite number of solutions.

Option (E) is not correct.

Thus, (B) and (D) are the correct options.

Your neighbor agreed to trudge through the snow to buy snow shovels for 10 families on your street! The store owner gave him a d

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

$17

Step-by-step explanation:

We are assuming that snow shovels for 10 families means 10 shovel in total. If the manager is offering $2 discount per shovel, and there are ten shovels, then that is a 20 dollar discount. 85, the cost after discount, plus 20 is 105. 105/10=10.5. Your family is offering two pay for two shovels, so the total for you would come to $21, but there is the $2 discount, so subtract 4 dollars, and you have $17.

Your company offers warranty coverage for MP3 players. The policy provides for the replacement of MP3 players that fail within 3

Finger [1]

Answer:

181 MP3 players

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Replacement of MP3 that fail within 3 years

expected lifetime of MP3 = 5 years

number of MP3 players purchased = 1000

number of MP3 players replaced in the first year = ?

To determine the number of MP3 replaced in the first year we will employ this formula:

$E(To) = \frac{1}{u} = e_{x} ^{0} =\int\limits^a_0 {po} \, dt$

a = ∞

since the given problem is an exponential distribution

1/u = 5 hence u = 0.2

next we will determine the number of MP3's to fail in its first year of purchase

qo = failure

po = success

number of purchase = 1000

attached below is the remaining part of the solution
