Question

Im not sure how to do this one

Answer 1

6x-8x-4=-2x-2 (group the like terms)

6x-8x+2x= 4-2 (-8x+2x= -6x and 6x-6x=0) (4-2=2)

answer= 0=2

,therefore: it has no solution

Explanation:

the answer is 0=2 which mean there is nothing that 2 is equivalent to because when you group the like terms and work out the answer the x in the equation will be canceled.

Answer 2

B

Explanation:

6x - 8x - 4 = - 2x - 2 , that is

- 2x - 4 = - 2x - 2 ( add 4 to both sides )

- 2x = - 2x + 2 ( add 2x to both sides )

0 = 2 ← not possible

this indicates the equation has no solution
