Question

37 + 1 half − ( + 1 fourth) = 9(4 − 7) +5 x = ?

Answer 1

ANSWER:

The system has no solution

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We have the following equation:

$37x+\frac{1}{2}-(x+\frac{1}{4})=9(4x-7)+5$

Solving for x:

$\begin{gathered} 37x+\frac{1}{2}-x-\frac{1}{4}=36x-58+5 \\ 36x+\frac{1}{4}=36x-53 \\ 36x-36x=53-\frac{1}{4} \\ 0=53-\frac{1}{4} \end{gathered}$

Therefore the system has no solution
