Question

-4(x+3) = -4(x+1) -5

Answer 1

Simplify each side by distributing.
-4x-12 = -4x-4-5 Simplify
-4x-12 = -4x-9
-12 doesn't equal -9 There is no solution

Answer 2

For all of the values you plug in for x, you get -12=-9 as @DSS has showed above. Thus, for no value of x you get both the left and right quantities equal.

Answer 3

I am not really this kind of equation because it suppose to be no solution but it is not really true

Answer 4

I m kind of confused in problem like this

Answer 5

Right...it's not true. The x values cancelled out. You couldn't substitute any value for x that would make these work because -12 is not equal to -9
