does 3 x-1 + 5 4x + 3 - x has one solution infinite solutions or no solution?

1 answer

To determine whether the equation 3x-1 + 5(4x + 3) - x has one solution, infinite solutions, or no solution, we need to simplify it.

Expanding the equation, we have:
3x - 1 + 20x + 15 - x = 0

Combining like terms:
22x + 14 = 0

Subtracting 14 from both sides:
22x = -14

Dividing both sides by 22:
x = -14/22

Simplifying:
x = -7/11

Therefore, the equation has one solution.
