Question

Create your own two-step equation with NO SOLUTION as the solution. Show the steps to solving the equation and explain in words why your work proves that there are NO SOLUTIONS

Answer 1

thats all it gives

Answer 2

i'm assuming no REAL solutions....

\[\large \sqrt{x}=-2 \]

Answer 3

Ok, how about you write up a quadratic equation with no real solutions.

Answer 4

idk what to do..

Answer 5

Do what dpalnc said.

Answer 6

\[10x^2-x+20\]
Notice using the quadratic equation gives a negative square root value?
Which is what @dpaInc just showed you.

Answer 7

whats that?

Answer 8

Bryan, do this one then.

x-1 = x + 1

Answer 9

It results in - 1 = 1 which is not true and thus no solutions.

Answer 10

oh
no wonder i was like i cant solve that

Answer 11

thats not two step though or is it?

Answer 12

Medal please? Lol

Answer 13

is taht a two step equation???

Answer 14

3(2x + 5) = 2(3x + 4)

Ok, this is a two step equation.

Answer 15

Show the steps to solving the equation and explain in words why your work proves that there are NO SOLUTIONS.

Answer 16

3(2x+5) = 2(3x+4)
6x + 15 = 6x + 8
15 = 8

This proves there are no solutions because the end result is 15 = 8, which is clearly not true. For example, this is saying 15 cats are equal to 8 cats -- obviously a false statement.

Answer 17
