3 (4x – 2) = 12x




A.The equation has one solution.

B.The equation has no solution.

C.The equation has a few solutions.

D.The equation has many solutions.

Answer 1

B

Explanation:

Remove the brackets

12x - 6 = 12x

Unfortunately when you subtract 12x, you get - 6 = 0

That is not true.

The equation really doesn't have any solutions (except perhaps infinity).
