Answer :
Step-by-step explanation:
9x - 7 - 3x + 9 = x + 7 + 5x + 9
6x + 2 = 6x + 16
2 = 16
Since 2 = 16 is false, there exist no real solutions for x.
Final Answer: No Solution. The equation would have 0 solutions.
Steps/Explanations:
Hey there! The answer is No Solution because -7 = 7. If 7 = 7, then it would be true and have one solution, which is not the case here.
Step 1: You should cancel [tex]9[/tex] on both sides.
[tex]9x - 7 - 3x = x + 7 + 5x[/tex]
Step 2: Simplify [tex]9x - 7 - 3x[/tex] to [tex]6x - 7[/tex].
[tex]6x - 7 = x + 7 + 5x[/tex]
Step 3: Simplify [tex]x + 7 + 5x[/tex] to [tex]6x + 7[/tex].
[tex]6x - 7 = 6x + 7[/tex]
Step 4: You'll need to cancel [tex]6x[/tex] on both sides.
[tex]- 7 = 7[/tex]
Step 5: Since [tex]-7 = 7[/tex] is false, there would be no solution.
No Solution
