2. Solve each given equation and show your work. Tell whether it has one solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solutions, and identify each equation as an identity, a contradiction, or neither. A 6x + 4x - 6 = 24 + 9x B 25 - 4x = 15 - 3x + 10 - x C 4x + 8 = 2x + 7 + 2x - 20
@GrandMoffChris simplify each equation and tell me what you get
@TheSmartOne
I dont know how to simplify
I see, A: 6x + 4x - 6 = 24 + 9x 2x - 6 = 24 + 9x -30 = 7x x =? how many solutions do you think for this
ok you think 3, what would they be
10x - 6 = 24 + 9x
+
alright lets start from the basic stuff a solution of the equation is what the variable you are trying to find equals in this case, x
the solution should not be a equation, it should be some number of some sort
For equation 1, there is only 1 solution, what would it be @GrandMoffChris
Hmm, wait x when its 7x its 7 x x right?
No I mean 7 times many times
it multiplies itself
7 x 7 x 7
look at my work above
7x = -30 what does x =?
37?
