Is this equation infinity many solution 5c+9=5c-12

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The answer is no solution.

Step-by-step explanation: First, you would add + 12 to both sides of the equation so that you would have 5c + 21 = 5c. Then, you would subtract 5c from both sides of the equation. This would leave you with 21 = 0. Since this is not true, the equation would have no solution.
