Question

Solve the equation and show your work. Tell whether it has one solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solutions, and identify each equation as an identity, a contradiction, or neither

6x + 4x - 6 = 24 + 9x

Answer 1

One solution , x = 30

Explanation:

6x + 4x - 6 = 24 + 9x

10x - 9x = 24 + 6

x = 30

Answer 2

The given equation has only one solution.

Explanation:

`6x+4x-6=24+9x`

Solving for x by grouping the like terms together.

`6x+4x-9x=24+6`

=> x = 30 (only 1 solution)

Therefore, the given equation has only one solution.
