Question

Decide whether the given equation is an identity, a conditional equation, or a contradiction. Give the solution set 0.3(x + 3) - 0.6(x + 3) = -0.3x -0.9 Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice.​

Answer 1

Answer: identity

Explanation:

Given The equation:

0.3(x + 3) - 0.6(x + 3) = -0.3x -0.9

Selecting the left hand side :

0.3(x + 3) - 0.6(x + 3)

= 0.3x + 0.9 - 0.6x - 1.8

= 0.3x - 0.6x + 0.9 - 1.8

= - 0.3x - 0.9

Solving the left hand side, we obtain the same expression stated on the right hand side.

Hence the expression is an identity

Since,

L. H. S = R. H. S
