Question

Elena said the equation 9x+15=3x+15 has no solutions because 9x is greater than 3x. Do you agree with Elena? Explaining your reasoning.

Answer 1

I agree.

Explanation:

Here is my explantion:

`9x+15=3x+15\\\\Simplify:\\9x=3x\\\\Subtract 3x from both sides\\9x-3x=3x-3x\\\\\\Simplify:\\6x=0\\\\Divide both sides by 6\\(6x)/(6) =(0)/(6)\\`

Answer 2

it does have a solution x=0

Explanation:

9x+15=3x+15

6x+15=15

6x=0

x=0
