Question

Kamal solved an equation as shown below. 3(x-8)=x+2x+7 3x-24=3x+7 -24=7 What is the solution to Kamal’s equation?

Answer 1

Answer:Its No Solution i just took the Unit Test.

Explanation:

Answer 2

No solution

Explanation:

The given equation is
`3(x-8)=x+2x+7`.

Kamal expanded first and simplified the RHS to get:
`3x-24=3x+7`

He then subtracted 3x from both sides of the equation to get: -24=7

Since the last statement is false, it means the given equation is inconsistent.

Hence the equation has no solution.
