Question

5(2x + 2) - 7x = 3x + 6

Answer 1

Hello!

Answer:

`\Large \boxed{\sf No ~solution}`

Explanation:

→ We want to solve thsi equation:

`\sf 5(2x + 2) - 7x = 3x + 6`

◼ Simplify the left side:

`\sf 10x + 10 - 7x = 3x + 6`

`\sf 3x + 10 = 3x + 6`

◼ Subtract 3x from both sides:

`\sf 3x + 10 -3x= 3x + 6-3x`

◼ Simplify both sides:

`\sf 10 =6`

→ The equation is a contradiction so it has no solution.

Conclusion:

The equation has no solution.
