Answer:
B
Explanation:
Given
3(- n + 4) + 5n = 2n ← distribute and simplify left side
- 3n + 12 + 5n = 2n
2n + 12 = 2n ( subtract 12 from both sides )
2n = 2n - 12 ( subtract 2n from both sides )
0 = - 12 ← not possible
This indicates the equation has no solution
Comparing the types of solutions
A n = 3
Indicates that there is only one unique solution to the equation.
B no solutions
This is indicated when you solve and obtain a ridiculous statement, similar to the one obtained in part A, that is
0 = 12
C infinite solutions
This is indicated when you solve the equation and obtain
4 = 4 or - 3 = - 3
