8x + 47 = 8(x+5)
Α. Ο
B. 1
C. Infinitely many

Answer 1

Answer:

A. No solution/0

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Distribute

8x + 47 = 8x + 40

These 2 equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts. This means that the 2 lines are parallel. There will be no solution to this problem.
