9a. The equation -x + 1 + 5x = 2 + 4x + 9 simplifies to 4x + 1 = 4x + 11.
Solving this equation leads to an identity, as the variable "x" cancels out on both sides:
0 = 10
Since 0 does not equal 10, there is no solution to this equation.
Therefore, the correct response is "No solution".
9b. The equation -2x + 7 + 8x = 2 + 6x + 5 simplifies to 6x + 7 = 6x + 7.
Solving this equation leads to an identity, as the variable "x" cancels out on both sides:
0 = 0
Since 0 equals 0, this equation is true for all values of "x".
Therefore, the correct response is "identity (infinite solutions)".
