5(x+1) = 12

5(x+1) = 5x + 12

5(x+1) = 5x + 5

5(x=1) = 0

what one is an infinite solution

Answer 2

• Let b represent Billy’s height.
• Therefore, the quotient of Billy’s height and 5
• 
  `= (b)/(5)`
• Sarah is 2 inches taller than the quotient of Billy’s height and 5.
• Therefore, an expression that represents Sarah’s height is
• 
  `2 + (b)/(5)`

Answer:

`2 + (b)/(5)`
