Question

How many solutions does this equation have-2c=-10c+8c

Answer 1

There are three possible answers.
One solution
No solution
Many solutions

This has many solutions because if you add the like terms -10c and 8c, you’d get -2c. This makes the equation: -2c = -2c. c could equal anything and the equation would still be true because no matter what c is equal to, it’s going to be multiplied by the same number. For example, if c=2 the equation would be -4 = -4. This is true. Also, if c= -3 the equation would be 6 = 6 which is also true.

Answer 2

This equation is only going to have no solutions because if you combine like terms (the -10c+8c) then you get -2c=-2c and then you add 2c to both sides then you end up with no solution I believe
