Question

Which expressions would complete this equation so that the equation has no solution?

6(4x – 3) – 10x =

Choose exactly two answers that are correct.

A.
14x – 15

B.
2(7x – 10)

C.
15x – 14

D.
2(7x – 9)

Answer 1

6(4x - 3) - 10x
24x - 18 - 10x
14x - 18 = ......for their to be no solution, you would have to make the x's cancel....and the integer cannot be -18.

14x - 18 = 2(7x - 10)
14x - 18 = 14x - 20 --- subtract 14x from both sides
-18 = -20 ---- incorrect....no solutions

14x - 18 = 14x - 15 --- subtract 14x from both sides
-18 = -15 --- incorrect....no solutions
