SOLUTIONS

How many solutions are there to the equation:

To find the number of solutions to the equation, we need to solve it first.

The given equation is:

$\large\begin{aligned}\rm:\implies 7x - 2(x - 10) = 40\end{aligned}$

Expanding the equation:

$\large\begin{aligned}\rm:\implies 7x - 2x + 20 = 40\end{aligned}$

Combining like terms:

$\large\begin{aligned}\rm:\implies 5x + 20 = 40\end{aligned}$

Subtracting 20 from both sides:

$\large\begin{aligned}\rm:\implies 5x = 20\end{aligned}$

Dividing both sides by 5:

$\large\begin{aligned}\rm:\implies x = 4\end{aligned}$

Hence, the equation has a single solution, which is x = 4.
