Question

How many solutions does the equation have?
-2(v - 2) = -3 - 2v

Answer 1

0 solutions

Explanation:

`-2\left(v-2\right)\\-2v-\left(-2\right)\cdot \:2\\-2v+2\cdot \:2\\-2v+4\\-2v+4=-3-2v\\-2v+4-4=-3-2v-4\\-2v=-2v-7\\-2v+2v=-2v-7+2v\\0=-7\\\mathrm{a < 0 = a \\eq\:or\: not > 0 = No\:Solution}`

Answer 2

no solution

Explanation:

- 2(v - 2) = - 3 - 2v ← distribute left side

- 2v + 4 = - 3 - 2v ( subtract 4 from both sides )

- 2v = - 7 - 2v ( add 2v to both sides )

0 = - 7 ← not possible

Hope this helps
