Question

Identify whether the equation has one solution, no solution or infinitely

many solutions. Show the work and state the property used in each step.
5(m - 2) + 1 = 3m + 2 (m + 5)

Answer 1

`5(m - 2) + 1 = 3m + 2(m + 5)`

`5m - 10 + 1 = 3m + 2m + 10`

`5m - 9 = 5m + 10`

`5m - 5m = 10 + 9`

`0m = 19`

ig the expression has no solution
