Let's solve each equation one by one and match them to the appropriate solutions.

1. **Equation**: \( 2i + 3 = 2i - 5 \)

Subtract \( 2i \) from both sides:
\[ 3 = -5 \]

This is a false statement, indicating that there are no values of \( i \) that satisfy the equation.

- **Match**: 4). no solution

2. **Equation**: \( 3(2i - 7) = 6i - 21 \)

Distributing on the left side:
\[ 6i - 21 = 6i - 21 \]

The left side equals the right side for any value of \( i \). Therefore, there are infinite solutions.

- **Match**: 2). infinite solutions

3. **Equation**: \( 3i + 2i - 4 = 18i \)

Combine like terms:
\[ 5i - 4 = 18i \]

Subtract \( 5i \) from both sides:
\[ -4 = 13i \]

Now solve for \( i \):
\[ i = -\frac{4}{13} \]

- **Match**: 6). i = -4 over 13

Now we have matched the equations with their solutions:

1. **4** (no solution)
2. **2** (infinite solutions)
3. **6** (i = -4 over 13)

Let's analyze the steps provided in solving the equation:

1. **Original Equation**:
\[ 3x - 9x + 1 = 2(-3x + 1) - 1 \]

2. **First Step**:
\[ -6x + 1 = -6x + 2 - 1 \]
This simplifies to:
\[ -6x + 1 = -6x + 1 \]

This shows that both sides of the equation are identical at this point. This implies that the equation is true for all values of \( x \).

Therefore, there are infinitely many solutions to the equation because both sides are equal regardless of the value of \( x \).

- **True Statement**:
A). There are infinitely many solutions to the equation.

Let's analyze the student's work step by step:

1. **Original Equation**:
\[ 4(2 - 3x) = x - 2(2x + 1) \]

2. **First Step**:
Distributing on both sides:
\[ 8 - 12x = x - 4x - 2 \]
Simplifying the right side gives:
\[ 8 - 12x = -3x - 2 \]

3. **Second Step**:
Now we have:
\[ 8 - 12x = -3x - 2 \]

4. **Rearranging**:
Add \( 12x \) to both sides:
\[ 8 = 9x - 2 \]

Now, add \( 2 \) to both sides:
\[ 10 = 9x \]

Now, divide by \( 9 \):
\[ x = \frac{10}{9} \]

This means the solution is \( x = \frac{10}{9} \), indicating that there is one valid solution.

The student's work incorrectly concluded "No solution" before solving properly.

To determine which equation has infinitely many solutions, we should analyze each equation step by step.

### A) \( 3 - 3x = -3(x - 1) \)

Distributing on the right side:
\[ 3 - 3x = -3x + 3 \]

When we simplify:
\[ 3 - 3x = -3x + 3 \]

This is true for all \( x \) because both sides are equal.

### B) \( 4x + 1 = 4(x + 1) \)

Distributing on the right side:
\[ 4x + 1 = 4x + 4 \]

Subtracting \( 4x \) from both sides gives:
\[ 1 = 4 \]

This is a false statement, indicating no solutions.

### C) \( 3x = 2x + 1 \)

Subtracting \( 2x \) from both sides gives:
\[ x = 1 \]

This has a single solution.

### D) \( 3x + 5 = 3x - 5 \)

Subtracting \( 3x \) from both sides gives:
\[ 5 = -5 \]

This is a false statement, indicating no solutions.

### Conclusion

Among the equations:

- **A)** has infinitely many solutions.
- **B)** has no solutions.
- **C)** has one solution.
- **D)** has no solutions.

**The equation that has infinitely many solutions is:**

**A) \( 3 - 3x = -3(x - 1) \)**

Answer 9

Bot GPT 4-o mini answered

Let's analyze the student's work step by step:

1. **Original Equation**:
\[ 2(2x + 2) = 4(x + 4) \]

2. **Distributing**:
The left side becomes:
\[ 4x + 4 \]
The right side becomes:
\[ 4x + 16 \]

So, the equation simplifies to:
\[ 4x + 4 = 4x + 16 \]

3. **Next Step**:
When the student wrote:
\[ 4x + 4 = 4x + 4 \]
This is incorrect because the right side should have stayed as \( 4x + 16 \).

4. **Final Comparison**:
The student mistakenly equated equal expressions, leading to an erroneous statement \( 4 = 4 \), which simplifies correctly but doesn't address the original equation properly.

Since the left side \( 4x + 4 \) does not equal \( 4x + 16 \), we ultimately have the statement \( 4 \neq 16 \), indicating that there are actually **no solutions** to the original equation.

### Conclusion

- **Based on the student's work**, the equation was solved **incorrectly**.

- **The equation solved correctly would show that it has** **no solution**.

38 = (3h - 4 x h) over

Answer 11

Bot GPT 4-o mini answered

Let's break down the problem step by step.

### Step 1: Expression for the base of the triangle

Given that the base of the triangle (\(b\)) is four less than three times the height (\(h\)), we can express the base as:

\[
b = 3h - 4
\]

So, the expression for the base of the triangle is:
**Expression for the base of the triangle:** **3h - 4**

---

### Step 2: Equation for the area of the triangle

The formula for the area of a triangle is:
\[
A = \frac{b \times h}{2}
\]

Substituting the expression for the base (\(3h - 4\)) into the area formula and setting the area \(A\) to 38 square centimeters:

\[
38 = \frac{(3h - 4) \times h}{2}
\]

So, the equation for the area of the triangle is:
**Equation for the area of the triangle, substituting in for the base:** **38 = (3h - 4) \cdot h / 2**

---

### Step 3: The first step in solving for \(h\)

To eliminate the fraction in the equation, the first step in solving for \(h\) is to multiply both sides by 2:

\[
2 \cdot 38 = (3h - 4) \cdot h
\]

So, the first step in solving for \(h\) is:
**The first step in solving for h:** **multiply both sides by 2**

---

To summarize:
1. Expression for the base: **3h - 4**
2. Equation for the area: **38 = (3h - 4) \cdot h / 2**
3. First step in solving for \(h\): **multiply both sides by 2**

Solve the equation for y: 3x+5y=60

options:
1. y = 60 − 3x

2. y = 60 + 3x over 5

3. y=−3 over 5 x + 12

4. y = 57x over 5

Answer 13

Bot GPT 4-o mini answered

To solve the equation \( 3x + 5y = 60 \) for \( y \), we need to isolate \( y \) on one side of the equation. Here are the steps:

1. **Start with the original equation**:
\[
3x + 5y = 60
\]

2. **Subtract \( 3x \) from both sides**:
\[
5y = 60 - 3x
\]

3. **Now, divide every term by 5 to solve for \( y \)**:
\[
y = \frac{60 - 3x}{5}
\]

This can be separated into:
\[
y = \frac{60}{5} - \frac{3x}{5}
\]

Which simplifies to:
\[
y = 12 - \frac{3}{5}x
\]

Thus, the rearranged equation is:
\[
y = -\frac{3}{5}x + 12
\]

### Conclusion

The correct option is:
**3. \( y = -\frac{3}{5}x + 12 \)**

Solve the following:

ax − 44 < 15

ax + 15 = 44

option:
x = 29a
x = 29 over a
x = 59 over a
x < 59 over a
x < 29a
x < 59a
x = 59a
x < 29 over a

Answer 15

Bot GPT 4-o mini answered

Let's solve the given inequalities and equations step by step.

### Step 1: Solve the inequality \( ax - 44 < 15 \)

First, we isolate \( ax \) on one side:

1. Add 44 to both sides:
\[
ax < 15 + 44
\]
\[
ax < 59
\]

2. **Now divide both sides by \( a \)** (assuming \( a \neq 0 \)):
- If \( a > 0 \):
\[
x < \frac{59}{a}
\]

- If \( a < 0 \):
\[
x > \frac{59}{a} \quad \text{(note that the direction of the inequality changes)}
\]

For this problem, we'll assume \( a > 0\) to focus on the common scenario:

\[
x < \frac{59}{a}
\]

### Step 2: Solve the equation \( ax + 15 = 44 \)

1. Subtract 15 from both sides:
\[
ax = 44 - 15
\]
\[
ax = 29
\]

2. Now divide both sides by \( a \) (again assuming \( a \neq 0 \)):
\[
x = \frac{29}{a}
\]

### Summary of Results

- From the inequality \( ax - 44 < 15 \):
- **If \( a > 0 \)**: \( x < \frac{59}{a} \)
- The solution for the equation \( ax + 15 = 44 \):
- \( x = \frac{29}{a} \)

### Conclusion
- The correct option for the inequality is:
**\( x < \frac{59}{a} \)**

Thus, the solution to the inequality is represented by **\( x < \frac{59}{a} \)**.
