To transform the equation into the form x=a, where a is a number, and show that it has one solution, we can apply the following steps:
B. Subtract 15x from both sides of the equation and then simplify: This will isolate the term with x on one side of the equation.
E. Add 24 to both sides of the equation and then simplify: This will eliminate the constant term on one side of the equation.
By performing these two steps, we can transform the equation into the form x=a with one solution.
B. Subtract 15x from both sides of the equation and then simplify: This will isolate the term with x on one side of the equation.
E. Add 24 to both sides of the equation and then simplify: This will eliminate the constant term on one side of the equation.
By performing these two steps, we can transform the equation into the form x=a with one solution.
