2v=3-7
2v=-4 divide both sides
v=-2
This is an impossible equation. If sqrt(x) = sqrt(x), and sqrt(x) + 2 = sqrt(x) + 12, then that would mean that 2=12, which is incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
5x + 2x + 2 = 9x + 4
9x - 5x - 2x = 2 - 4
9x - 7x = - 2
2x = - 2
x = - 2 / 2
Therefore x = -1.
