The equation has one solution: x=−1.
The equation has infinite solutions.
The equation has one solution: x=−3.
To solve the equation 11x=3(7x−1)−10x, we can start by simplifying the right side by distributing the 3 and subtracting 10x:
11x = 21x - 3 - 10x
Combining like terms:
11x = 11x - 3
Now, we notice that 11x is equal to itself, so no matter what value of x we choose, the equation will always be true. This means that the equation has infinite solutions.
The correct response is: The equation has infinite solutions.
11x = 21x - 3 - 10x
Combining like terms:
11x = 11x - 3
Now, we notice that 11x is equal to itself, so no matter what value of x we choose, the equation will always be true. This means that the equation has infinite solutions.
The correct response is: The equation has infinite solutions.
Solve the following linear equation for x. Then check your answer. Show all your steps for solving and checking.
5x+8+x=32
5x+8+x=32
To solve the equation 5x+8+x=32, we can start by combining like terms:
6x + 8 = 32
Next, we'll isolate x by subtracting 8 from both sides of the equation:
6x = 32 - 8
Simplifying, we have:
6x = 24
To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 6:
x = 24/6
x = 4
To check our answer, we substitute the value of x back into the original equation:
5(4) + 8 + 4 = 32
20 + 8 + 4 = 32
32 = 32
Since both sides of the equation are equal, we have verified that x = 4 is indeed the correct solution.
So, the solution to the equation 5x+8+x=32 is x = 4.
6x + 8 = 32
Next, we'll isolate x by subtracting 8 from both sides of the equation:
6x = 32 - 8
Simplifying, we have:
6x = 24
To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 6:
x = 24/6
x = 4
To check our answer, we substitute the value of x back into the original equation:
5(4) + 8 + 4 = 32
20 + 8 + 4 = 32
32 = 32
Since both sides of the equation are equal, we have verified that x = 4 is indeed the correct solution.
So, the solution to the equation 5x+8+x=32 is x = 4.
