Question

Check, whether the following equation has exactly one solution or infinitely many solution or no solution. 4x + 2 = 4x – 5

hintHint:

An equation where no value can be substituted for the variable which will satisfy the equation i.e. for no value of x (or any other variable in the equation), would LHS equal RHS.
Hence, an equation where LHS ≠ RHS for any value of x has no solutions.
We will simplify the given equation and check whether LHS = RHS or not.

The correct answer is: The given equation 4x + 2 = 4x - 5 can be classified as having no solution


    Step-by-step solution:-
    Simplifying the given equation i.e. 4x + 2 = 4x - 5, we get-
    4x + 2 = 4x - 5
    ∴ 4x - 4x + 2 = 4x - 4x - 5 ........................................................... (Adding -4x both the sides)
    ∴ 0 + 2 = -5
    ∴ 2 ≠ -5
    ∴ LHS ≠ RHS
    Since in the above equation, LHS is not equal to RHS, the given equation has no solutions.
    Final Answer:-
    ∴ The given equation 4x + 2 = 4x - 5 can be classified as having no solution.
