Complete the equation so that it has no solution.(1 point) −7x−12= x+12

3 answers

-7x - 12 = x + 12

-8x - 12 = 12

-8x = 24

x = -3

Since -3 is a valid solution, we need to change the equation in order to have no solution.
wrong
Apologies for the error. Here is the correct way to create an equation with no solution:

−7x−12 = x+12

−7x−12 = x+12

−7x−x = 12+12

−8x = 24

Dividing by -8 on both sides:

x = -3

Since x = -3 is a valid solution, this equation does not have no solution. Let's try again:

To create an equation with no solution, we can try:

−7x−12 = x+13

This equation will have no solution because when we solve it, we get x = -1. This is a contradiction, so the equation has no solution.
