Question

(07.05 LC)

Answer 1

Answer:

It has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we try and solve it we end up with nonsense, so it has no solutions:

4n - 3 = 4n - 2

4n - 4n = - 2 + 3

0 = 1

-  which is, of course, absurd.

Also, just by looking at the equation we can see that  the term 4n  -3  cannot in any way be equal to 4n - 2.

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is (A); there is no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

It doesn't require any calculations, really, just logic.  Look, 4n = 4n wil be equal because they are the same numbers multiplied by the same variable - no matter the variable's value.  However, if you subtract both values by different numbers, you won't get the same number:

Let's say n = 5

4n = 4n

= 4(5) = 4(5)

= 20 = 20

Now,

4n - 3 = 4n - 2

= 4(5) - 3 = 4(5) - 2

= 20 - 3 = 20 -2

= 17 ≠ 18

Hope this helps!  Tell me if I was wrong!
