The statement 
no solutions represents the simplified form of the given equation 6x + 14 = 3(2x + 5). Hence Option A is correct
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, equation is 6x + 14 = 3(2x + 5).
We have to find the correct options that represents the simplified form of the given equation and correctly describes the solution.
So, now let us simplify the given equation
⇒6x + 14 = 3(2x + 5) ⇒ 6x + 14 = 6x + 15 ⇒ 6x – 6x + 14 = 15 ⇒ 14 ≠ 15
As L.H.S not equals with R.H.S, no value of x can satisfy the equation and there will be no solution for given equation.
Hence, option A is correct.
In this item, we are to calculated for the 6th term of the geometric sequence given the initial value and the common ratio. This can be calculated through the equation,
An = (A₀)(r)ⁿ ⁻ ¹
where An is the nth term, A₀ is the first term (in this item is referred to as t₀), r is the common ratio, and n is the number of terms.
Substitute the known values to the equation,
An = (5)(-1/2)⁶ ⁻ ¹
An = -5/32
Hence, the answer to this item is the third choice, -5/32.
