Question

There are two numbers. One number is twice the other number. The difference of the smaller number and half the larger number is 20.

An equation created to find the smaller number will have (One, No, or infinite solutions)

Answer 1

No solution

Explanation:

i can verify that it is correct because i took the test and got it right (using edmentum)

Answer 2

call the bigger number y and the smaller number x.
y=2x or

2x-y=0

x-1/2y=20

by elimination

2x-y=0
-2x+y=-40
0+0=-40
a contradiction so no solution
