Question

Consider solving the equation below for x.

2(4x + 1)3= ax + b
Which statements are true about the solution to the equation when substituting the
given values for a and b?
Choose all that apply.
"Hint: There are two.
If a 8 and b= -1, then there is exactly one solution to the equation.
□ If a= 2 and b= 4, then there are infinitely many solutions to the equation.
□
If a 4 and b= -2, then there is no solution to the equation.
If a= 2 and b= -1, then there is exactly one solution to the equation.
If a 8 and b= 1, then there is no solution to the equation.
=

Answer 1

If a = -8 and b = -1 there is exactly one solution to the equation

Explanation:

I was unable to find the other one...

Are you sure there are two possible solutions, or did you forget to include one of the options...?
