Question

8x+3(-2x+1)= -1/2(-4x+10)+8 what does x =

Answer 1

No solution

Explanation:

`\sf 8x + 3(-2x + 1) = -(1)/(2)(-4x + 10) + 8`

Distribute the 3 on the left side and -1/2 on right side:

`\sf 8x - 6x + 3 = 2x - 5 + 8`

Combine like terms on the left side:

`\sf 2x + 3 = 2x +3`

Since both sides have the same value, the value of x is not calculable.

Therefore, we cannot determine the value of x that makes the equation.
