Question

Classify the equation 6x + 4x - 1 = 2(5x + 4) as having one solution, infinitely many solutions, or no

Answer 1

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 4x - 1 = 2(5x + 4) ← distribute parenthesis

10x - 1 = 10x + 8 ( add 1 to both sides )

10x = 10x + 9 ( subtract 10x from both sides )

0 = 9 ← not possible

this indicates the equation has no solution
