Answer:

D, or Infinite Solutions

Explanation:

We have the equation a + 5(2a - 1) + 3 = 11a - 2

Solve the equation and see if there's a solution or not.

a + 5(2a) - 5(1) + 3 = 11a - 2

a + 10a - 5 + 3 = 11a - 2

11a - 2 = 11a - 2

Since both equations are the same, then any value of a will satisfy the equation, making it have infinite solutions. Hope this helps.

Answer:

The equation has no solution

Explanation:


{ \tt{a + 5(2a - 1) + 3 = 11a - 2}} \\ { \tt{a + 10a - 5 + 3 = 11a - 2}} \\ { \tt{11a - 2 = 11a - 2}} \\ { \tt{11a - 11a = - 2 + 2}} \\ { \red{ \tt{0 = 0}}}
