Answer:

c. no real solutions

Explanation:

because:

1. 10+6x=15+9x-3x

6x+10=15+9x-3x

2. 6x+10=15+9x-3x

6x+10=15+6x

3. 6x+10=15+6x

6x+10=6x+15

4. 6x+10=6x+15

6x+10-10=6x+15-10

5. 6x=6x+5

6. 6x=6x+5

6x-6x=6x+5-6x

Then you get:

0=5

remember, If you want to know if an equation has no equation:

the constants are the numbers alone with no variables. If the coefficients are the same on both sides then the sides will not equal, therefore no solutions will occur. Use distributive property on the right side first.

I hope this helps :)
