Question

5

After simplifying the expressions on each side of an equation, you observed that the coefficients of x and the constants

on each side of the equal sign were the same. What kind of solution(s) do you expect for this equation?

No solution

Infinitely many solutions

One unique solution

T

Answer 1

The solution has infinitely many solutions.

Explanation:

Correct option is - The solution has infinitely many solutions.

The expression is of the form -

ax + b = ax + b

In the expression , any value of x will satisfy

So, we get infinitely many solution

For example -

for x = 1

a(1) + b = a(1) + b

⇒ a + b = a + b

satisfied.

for x = 2

a(2) + b = a(2) + b

⇒ 2a + b = 2a + b

satisfied.

Hereon, for any value of x , it satisfies.
