Complete the equation below to create an equation with no solution. 5(4x+7)-2x= blank x +21
The equation with no solution can be created by setting the left side of the equation equal to a different expression than the right side.
Let's set the left side equal to 5x + 21, and the right side equal to 4x + 21.
5(4x + 7) - 2x = 5x + 21
When we simplify the left side, we get:
20x + 35 - 2x = 5x + 21
Combining like terms, we have:
18x + 35 = 5x + 21
Next, let's solve for x by isolating the variable:
18x - 5x = 21 - 35
13x = -14
Dividing both sides by 13, we find:
x = -14/13
Therefore, the equation 5(4x+7)-2x = 5x + 21, where x = -14/13, does not have a solution.
