Question

Algebra 18x + 12 = 4(2x + 3)

Answer 1

Answer:

The problem has no solution

Explanation:

Given the equation:

$8x+12=4(2x+3)$

To solve this, we first of divide both sides of the equation by 4

$\begin{gathered} \frac{8x+12}{4}=\frac{4(2x+3)}{4} \\ \\ 2x+3=2x+3 \end{gathered}$

From the last equation, subracting 2x from both sides is required if we must obtain a value for x.

Doing so however, makes the variable x vanish, and hence the problem has no solution
