How many solutions can be found for the equation 5x + 3(x - 1) = 10x - 2x
- 3? (4 points)
O None
o One
O Two
O Infinitely many

Answer 1

Somehow your answer is wrong there are Infinitely many solutions.

Explanation:

Have a nice day!

Answer 2

None

Explanation:

If we try to solve for x, we get

5x +3(x-1) = 10x -2x ===> 5x + 3x -3 = 8x ===> 8x -3 = 8x ===> 8x -8x - 3 = 0

===> -3 = 0

which is a contradiction.

So, the equation has no solution.
