Question

Is -2(3x-1)= -6x-1 one solution

Answer 1

Hello, from my calculations, this equation does not have a solution.

Explanation:

-2(3x-1) = (-6x) - 1

-6x + 2 = -6x - 1

*+6x from the left side and +1 from the right side*

0=3

0=3 is incorrect and invalid. Plus, in the process of solving for x, the x variable was eliminated.
