BRAINIEST IF ANSWERED CORRECTLY

An example of something that doesn't have a solution is something like x+2 = x+3

If we subtract x from both sides, then we end up with 2 = 3, which is always false.

No matter what we plug in for x, the original equation will always be false. The right hand side is always 1 larger than the left side. So that's why we don't have any solutions here.

Side note: equations of this form are known as contradictions (or we could say the equation is inconsistent).

=====================================================

An example of something that has one solution is 3x+2 = 2x+7

Solving this equation leads us to...

3x+2 = 2x+7

3x-2x = 7-2

1x = 5

x = 5

To verify the solution, we plug it back into the original equation

3x+2 = 2x+7

3(5)+2 = 2(5)+7

15+2 = 10+7

17 = 17

We get the same thing on both sides, so we get a true statement. This confirms that x = 5 is the solution to 3x+2 = 2x+7.

=====================================================

An example of an equation with infinitely many solutions is 2x+4 = 2(x+2)

Notice how both sides are the same thing. The 2(x+2) distributes out to get 2x+4

Since we have the exact same identical expression on both sides, this ultimately means no matter what we plug in for x, we'll get a true statement. True statements (like the conclusion at the last section) are simply anything with the same number on both sides after simplifying everything.

Side note: equations of this form are known as identities

Orlov [11]

Supplementary adjacent angles form a "linear pair." Together, they make a line. The angle supplementary to 85° will be slightly obtuse, just as 85° is slightly acute.

Write 0.6 as a fraction ?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

6/10 ; 3/5 (simplified form)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, note the decimal place value. Move the decimal point to the right two place values, and set it over 100

0.6 = 60/100

Simplify the fraction. Divide common factors from the numerator & denominator (20 in this case)

(60/100)/(20/20) = 3/5

3/5 is your answer
