Question

HELP PLEASE <,3

What value of x makes this equation true?


−32x + 20 = −32x − 26



A. All real numbers

B. x = −46

C. No solution

D. x = −31

Answer 1

C No real solutions

Explanation:

If you try to simplify the answer by adding 32x to each side you are left with 20=26 which isn't correct.

Alternatively, you can plug -46 and -31 into x, but they both don't work because you aren't left with a true equation. This also means A is wrong too.
