solve 5x - 12 = 5x + 12 for x

Sagot :

Hey there!

5x - 12 = 5x + 12

SUBTRACT 5x to BOTH SIFES

5x - 12 - 5x = 5x + 12 - 5x

CANCEL outs 5x - 5x (on the LEFT side) & also CANCEL out 5x - 5x

KEEP: both -12 & 12

-12 = 12

ADD 12 to BOTH SIDES

-12 + 12 = 12 + 12

-12 + 12 = 0

12 + 12 = 24

YOU GET: 0 = 24

This means that equation has NO SOLUTIONS

Answer: NO (real) SOLUTIONS

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
