Question

Which values of P and Qresult in an equation with no solutions? -60x+32=Qx+P

Answer 1

Q=+60

P=-32

Explanation:

-60x+32=Qx+P

-60x+32= +60x-32

Answer 2

Q is -60 and P is -32

Explanation:

values of P and Q result in an equation with no solutions

`-60x+32=Qx+P`

When an equation have a no solution only when there is no x and both sides of equation are not same.

To eliminate x both sides of 'x' terms should be same

So Qx should be -60x

the value of Q= -60

To make both sides unequal , the value of p should be some other number

or opposite of 32

so p = -32

`-60x+32=-60x-32`

Add 60x on both sides

`32=-32` not same, its false

So , the equation has no solution
