Answer:
No, Ivory is incorrect. The equation does have a solution, and the solution is x = -1.
Step-by-step explanation:
We try to solve the equation first.
2x + 2 = x + 1
We want all variables on the left side and all numbers on the right side.
Subtract x from both sides.
x + 2 = 1
Subtract 2 from both sides.
x = -1
Check: Plug in -1 for x on both sides and see if it makes a true statement.
2x + 2 = x + 1
2(-1) + 2 = -1 + 1
-2 + 2 = 0
0 = 0
0 = 0 is a true statement, so the solution x = -1 is the correct solution.
Answer: Ivory is incorrect. The equation does have a solution, and the solution is x = -1.

47/8 is an improper fraction so we need to divide 47 by 8 to get an mixed number.
8 go into 47, 5 times because 5*8 equals 40.
47-40 is 7 that is the left over.
5 7/8 is your mixed number.
