Question

6x-3x-7=x+2x-12
what type of solution is this?

Answer 1

No Solutions

Explanation:

First, let's simplify the equation:

Solve:

• 6x - 3x - 7 = x + 2x - 12
• 3x - 7 = 3x - 12
• -7 = -12

See what happened! -7 does not equal -12, so this equation has no solutions

Another way:

• 6x - 3x - 7 = x + 3x - 12
• 3x - 7 = 3x - 12
• 3x + 5 = 3x
• 5 = 0
