Question

Determine whether the equation below has a one solutions, no solutions, or an infinite number of solutions. Afterwards, determine two values of xx that support your conclusion.

-10x=-80

Answer 1

One Solution

`x = 8`

Explanation:

Given

`-10x = -80`

Required

Determine the number of solution and the value of x

The equation is a linear equation and they have just one solution

Solving further [Divide both sides by -10]

`(-10x)/(-10) = (-80)/(-10)`

`x = (-80)/(-10)`

`x = 8`

Hence;

x has only one value
