Complete the equation below to create an equation with no solution. 5(4x 7)-2x=___x 21
5(4x 7)-2x=5x 21
The equation cannot be completed to create an equation with no solution.
To create an equation with no solution, we need to ensure that both sides of the equation are not equal. Let's start by simplifying the left side of the equation:
5(4x + 7) - 2x = 20x + 35 - 2x = 18x + 35.
Now, let's set the right side of the equation as 21x:
18x + 35 = 21x.
To create an equation with no solution, we need to eliminate the x terms on both sides of the equation. By subtracting 18x from both sides, we get:
35 = 3x.
However, at this point, we can see that both sides cannot be made equal, as there is no constant value that can substitute x to make the equation true. Thus, the completed equation with no solution is:
5(4x + 7) - 2x = 21x + 35.
