Question

Solve this equation: 8(3x - 6) = 6(4x + 8)

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Solving this equation results in the statement -48 = 48. Because this is a false statement, the equation has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

8(3x - 6) = 6(4x + 8)

24x - 48 = 24x + 48

minus 24x from both sides and you get -48 = 48

A false statement means one side does not equal the other. False statement always means no solution

you can solve this equation for x, but looking at the answers it's not what the question is asking for
