Question

How many solutions does the equation 1/5(20x-25)=4x-5 have?

Answer 1

no real solutions

Explanation:

1/5(20x-25)=4x-5

1/5(20-25)=4-5

1/5(-5)=1

-1=1

Answer 2

Infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

we need to simplify the equations

1/5(20x-25)=4x-5

distribute the 1/5

4x-5=4x-5

+5 to each side

4x=4x

divide each side by 4

x=x

since x=x there are infinitely many solutions.
