To solve the given equation, we can start by simplifying both sides of the equation:
5y + 2 = (1/2)(10y + 4)
First, we can simplify the right side of the equation by distributing (1/2) to both terms inside the parentheses:
5y + 2 = (1/2)(10y) + (1/2)(4)
5y + 2 = 5y + 2
Notice that both sides of the equation are identical! This means that the equation holds true for any value of y. Therefore, the equation has infinite solutions.
So, the correct response is:
identity
5y + 2 = (1/2)(10y + 4)
First, we can simplify the right side of the equation by distributing (1/2) to both terms inside the parentheses:
5y + 2 = (1/2)(10y) + (1/2)(4)
5y + 2 = 5y + 2
Notice that both sides of the equation are identical! This means that the equation holds true for any value of y. Therefore, the equation has infinite solutions.
So, the correct response is:

To solve the given equation, we can start by simplifying both sides of the equation:
0.5b + 4 = 2(b + 2)
First, we can distribute 2 to both terms inside the parentheses on the right side:
0.5b + 4 = 2b + 4
Next, let's move all terms involving b to one side of the equation by subtracting 2b from both sides:
0.5b - 2b + 4 = 4
Simplifying the left side, we get:
-1.5b + 4 = 4
Now, let's move the constant term to the other side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides:
-1.5b = 4 - 4
Simplifying, we have:
-1.5b = 0
To solve for b, we divide both sides of the equation by -1.5:
b = 0 / -1.5
Simplifying the fraction, we get:
b = 0
So, the solution to the equation is b = 0.
Therefore, the correct response is:
0
0.5b + 4 = 2(b + 2)
First, we can distribute 2 to both terms inside the parentheses on the right side:
0.5b + 4 = 2b + 4
Next, let's move all terms involving b to one side of the equation by subtracting 2b from both sides:
0.5b - 2b + 4 = 4
Simplifying the left side, we get:
-1.5b + 4 = 4
Now, let's move the constant term to the other side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides:
-1.5b = 4 - 4
Simplifying, we have:
-1.5b = 0
To solve for b, we divide both sides of the equation by -1.5:
b = 0 / -1.5
Simplifying the fraction, we get:
b = 0
So, the solution to the equation is b = 0.
Therefore, the correct response is:
0

To solve the given equation, we can start by simplifying both sides of the equation:
-3x + 5 = -3x + 10
Notice that the variable term (-3x) appears on both sides of the equation. In this case, we cannot isolate the variable and solve for x because the variable terms cancel each other out.
If we subtract -3x from both sides of the equation, we would be left with:
5 = 10
This is a nonsensical statement since 5 is not equal to 10.
Therefore, the equation has no solution.
So, the correct response is:
no solution
