Answer 1

Equation at the end of step1: (7x + 18) (4) - 4x = 0 2 STEP2:Equation at the end of step 2 2 • (7x + 18) - 4x = 0 STEP3:STEP4:Pulling out like terms

 4.1     Pull out like factors :

   10x + 36  =   2 • (5x + 18) 

Equation at the end of step4: 2 • (5x + 18) = 0 STEP5:Equations which are never true:

 5.1      Solve :    2   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

 5.2      Solve  :    5x+18 = 0 

 Subtract  18  from both sides of the equation : 

                      5x = -18

Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

                     x = -18/5 = -3.600
