To solve the equation, we first simplify both sides:
4(-4 - 8m) + 28m + 4m = -272
-16 - 32m + 28m + 4m = -272
-16 - 32m + 32m = -272
-16 = -272
Now we can see that the left side of the equation is a constant value (-16) while the right side is also a constant value (-272). Since the two values are not equal, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
Solve and Determine if the equation has one, none or infinite solutions.
4(-4 - 8m) + 28m + 4m = -272
