Question

I need help in two questions please & Thank you.
2x – 3 = 2x + 5
Minus 2x from both sides: -3 = 5
Since this equation is false, the solution is “____________”.
No matter what number you put in place of x, the equation will NOT work




2x + 3 = 2x + 3
Minus 2x from both sides: 3 = 3
Since this equation is true, the solution is “_____________”.
No matter what number you put in place of x, the equation WILL work.

Answer 1

i have no idea what you are supposed to write for the first one
the second one is an "identity"
look up in your book and see what they want you to write in the first blank, if an equation has no solution

Answer 2

okay thank you
