To solve for x, let's simplify the equation:
5(2x+2)−7x=3x+6
10x + 10 - 7x = 3x + 6
Next, let's combine like terms:
10x - 7x - 3x = 6 - 10
(10 - 7 - 3)x = - 4
0x = -4
Since 0 multiplied by any number is always 0, the equation becomes:
0 = -4
This is a contradiction because 0 cannot equal -4. Therefore, the equation has no solution.
Solve for x to determine if the equation has one, none, or infinite solutions.
5(2x+2)−7x=3x+6(1 point)
