Question

Determine the number of solutions for the equation: -6(24x+18)=43(5+5x).
Is there:
A. Infinite solutions
B. One solution
C. No solution

/// please help me with this question. I’m struggling, and can’t seem to find the answer.

Answer 1

The answer is B 

-6(24x+18)=43(5+5x)
-144x - 108 = 215 +215x
-108 = 215 + 359x
-323 = 359x 
-323/359 = x

If you would like me to explain more details i will!

Answer 2

-6(24x + 18) = 43(5 + 5x)

-144x - 108 = 215 + 215x

-108 - 215 = 215x + 144x

-323 = 359x 

x = - 323/359       ⇒ Answer B. One solution in ℝ
