Answer:
5x
Step-by-step explanation:
If the blank were to be occupied with 5x there would be no solutions
Observe...
5x - 8 = 5x + 2
* subtract 5x from each side *
5x - 5x cancels out
5x - 5x cancels out
we're left with -8 = 2
which is not true
Hence if the blank = 5x the equation will have no solution


Cancel out the denominators.
(x+5)² + 18 = -30
(x+5)² = -30 - 18
(x+5)² = -48
The equation is impossible, we have a negative number.
There isn't a number that squared gives a negative number (the square is always positive).
√(x+5)² = +/- √-48
x+5 = +/- √-48
IMPOSSIBLE
You can write the result in imaginary numbers
x+5=+/- 4i√3
Well flat means open so 180°
180° - 50° = 130° is the answer
Y = -(2/3)x+4 is the answer to the equation; solving for y
