5x+12= _ x+9

2 answers

In order for the equation to have no solution, we need to eliminate x on one side of the equation.

To do this, we can subtract x from both sides:
5x - x + 12 = 9

This simplifies to:
4x + 12 = 9

Now, we can subtract 12 from both sides:
4x = 9 - 12

This simplifies to:
4x = -3

Finally, to solve for x, we divide both sides by 4:
x = -3/4
