Answer:

5x + 10 = 5x - 15

6x - 8 = 2(3x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations that give no solutions are the equations that are equivalent to a false equality.

So, to find the answer, we need to solve each option:

5x + 10 = 5x - 15

5x + 10 - 5x = 4x - 15 - 5x

10 = -15 (False)

3x + 12 = 4x - 21

3x + 12 - 12 = 4x - 21 - 12

3x = 4x - 33

3x - 4x = 4x - 33 - 4x

-x = -33

x = 33

3(x + 4) = 3x + 12

3(x) + 3(4) = 3x + 12

3x + 12 = 3x + 12

5x + 10 = 6x - 8

5x + 10 - 10 = 6x - 8 - 10

5x = 6x - 18

5x - 6x = 6x - 18 - 6x

-x = -18

x = 18

2(3x - 4) = 6x - 8

2(3x) - 2(4) = 6x - 8

6x - 8 = 6x - 8

6x - 8 = 2(3x - 3)

6x - 8 = 2(3x) - 2(3)

6x - 8 = 6x - 6

6x - 8 - 6x = 6x - 6 - 6x

- 8 = - 6 (False)

Therefore, the answers are

5x + 10 = 5x - 15

6x - 8 = 2(3x - 3)
