Your question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have a question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Equation 1 |2x - 3| + 5 = 4 Equation 2 |5x + 3| - 10 = 3 Which statement is true about the solution to the two equations?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What are the statements?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Equation 1 and equation 2 have no solutions. Equation 1 has no solution and equation 2 has solutions x = 2, -3.2. The solutions to equation 1 are x = 1, 2 and equation 2 has no solution. The solutions to equation 1 are x = 1, 2 and equation 2 has solutions x = 2, -3.2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Th answer is equation 1 and equation 2 have no solutions.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you tell me how you got that? @TheDrowzeeAbra

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

well. solve them both, keep in mind that \( |2x - 3| + 5 = 4\implies |2x - 3| =4-5\implies |2x - 3| =-1\\ \quad \\ |2x - 3| =-1\implies \begin{cases} +(2x - 3) =-1\\ \quad \\ -(2x - 3) =-1 \end{cases}\\ \quad \\ |5x + 3| - 10 = 3\implies |5x + 3|=3+10\implies |5x + 3|=13\\ \quad \\ |5x + 3|=13\implies \begin{cases} +(5x + 3)=13\\ \quad \\ -(5x + 3)=13 \end{cases}\)

unless jdoe0001 has another answer, he's obviously better at it then me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay thanks @jdoe0001

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well I looked at the answers and substituted x with each of the numbers given as solutions. Then I looked to see if the answer was the same as the one given in the equation.

Thank you :)
