Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+2)=-6+2x

distribute the 2 in the parentheses: 2x+4=-6+2x

add the -6 to the other side to get rid of it on the side that it is on: 2x+10=2x

then subtract the 2x: 10=0x or 10=0

the equation is not solvable

0 = - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

$2(x + 2) = 6 + 2x \\ distribute \\ 2x + 4 = 6 + 2x \\ rearrange \\ 2x + 4 = 2x - 6 \\ substract \: four \: from \: both \: side \: \\ of \: the \: equation \\ 2x + 4 - 4 = 2x - 6 - 4 \\ 2x = 2x - 10 \\ 2x - 2x = 2x - 10 - 2x \\ = 0 = - 10$

Katie wants to collect over 100 seashells. She already has 34 seashells in her collection. Each day, she finds 12 more seashells

Answer:

$12d+34>100$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the number of days.

We have been that each day Katie finds 12 more seashells on beach, so after collecting shells for d days Katie will have 12d shells.

We are also told that Katie already has 34 seashells in her collection, so total number of shells in Katie collection after d days will be: $12d+34$

As Katie wants to collect over 100 seashells, so the total number of shells collected in d days will be greater than 100. We can represent this information in an inequality as:

$12d+34>100$

Therefore, the inequality $12d+34>100$ can be used to find the number of days, d, it will take Katie to collect over 100 seashells.
