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. You must complete all sections of this questions to receive full credit.
(a) 6x+4x-6=24+9x
(b) 25-4x=15-3x+10-x
(c) 4x+8=2x+7+2x-20

Respuesta :

(a) 6x+4x-6=24+9x

6x+4x-6=24+9x
10x-6=24+9x
x=30
one solution, equation is "neither" identity nor contradiction

(b) 25-4x=15-3x+10-x

25-4x=15-3x+10-x
25-4x=25-4x
both sides are the same (identity)-> infinite solutions

(c) 4x+8=2x+7+2x-20
4x+8=2x+7+2x-20
4x+8=4x-13
8=-13
no solutions -> Contradiction
