Answer 1

Answer: There is no value of x in the given equation.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the value of x in the equation below:

`(x+12)=(x+14)-3.`

Finding the value of x in the equation means solving the equation for x.

We have

`(x+12)=(x+14)-3\\\\\Rightarrow x+12=x+14-3\\\\\Rightarrow x+12=x+11\\\\\Rightarrow x-x=11-12\\\\\Rightarrow 0=-1,`

which can NEVER be true.

So, there is no solution of the given equation.

Thus, there is no value of x in the equation.

Answer 2

No solution or x ∈ ∅

Explanation:

We have given the equation ⇒ x+12 = (x+14) -3

if we solve this equation ⇒ x+12 = x+14-3

⇒x+12= x+11

⇒12 ≠ 11

which state that x ∈ ∅

i.e. there is no value of x which make the equation true

therefore, No solution
