Bot GPT 4-o mini To solve the equation \( 5x + 5 = 5x + 4 \), let's first simplify both sides.
-
Start with the original equation: \[ 5x + 5 = 5x + 4 \]
-
Subtract \( 5x \) from both sides: \[ 5 = 4 \]
-
The equation \( 5 = 4 \) is not true; it is a contradiction.
Since we reached a contradiction, this means that there are no values of \( x \) that will satisfy the equation.
Thus, the equation has no solutions.
So, you would circle none.
