Question

HELPP ASAP OR I WILL FAIL PLEASE

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

$\dfrac{14+10x}{12}=-3$

Cross multiply,

$14+10x=-3\times 12\\\\14+10x=-36\\\\10x=-36-14\\\\10x=-50\\\\x=-5$

This equation will have only one solution.

We can check the solution as follows :

Put x = -5 in LHS of the the given equation.

$\text{LHS}=\dfrac{14+10x}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{14+10(-5)}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{14-50}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{-36}{12}\\\\=-3$

= RHS

Hence, this is the required solution.
