Which statement represents the simplified form of the given equation and correctly describes the solution?

6x + 14 = 3(2x + 5)

A.
x = 14; exactly one real solution
B.
x = 15; exactly one real solution
C.
14 = 14; infinite real solutions
D.
14 ≠ 15; no real solutions

Answer 1

D

Explanation:

First, you must solve this equation

6x+14=3(2x+5)

distribute 3 on the right side

6x+14=6x+15

subtract 6x on both sides

14=15

Since there are no values of x that will make this true, the answer is equal to no solutions, so it's D
