2. solve each given equation and show your work. tell whether each equation has one solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solution. explain your answers. (a) 4 + 2( − 1) = 10 + 2 (b) 30 − = 10 − (6 + 10) (c) 8x = 4x + 4x + 10(x − x)

Hello!

To solve algebraic equations, we need to use SADMEP. SADMEP is an acronym used only solve for x in algebraic equations. SADMEP is expanded to be: subtraction, addition, division, multiplication, exponents, and parentheses.

(a) 4 + 2(-1) = 10 + 2 (multiply)

4 + -2 = 10 + 2 (add)

2 = 12

This equation has no solutions because 2 is never equal to 12.

(b) 30 = 10 - (6 + 10) (simplify the parentheses)

30 = 10 + -1(16) (multiply)

30 = 10 - 16 (simplify)

30 = -6

This equation has no solutions because 30 and -6 is never equal to each other.

(c) 8x = 4x + 4x + 10(x - x)

8x = 4x + 4x + 10(x - x) (simplify [add and subtract])

8x = 8x + 10(0) (multiply)

8x = 8x  

This equation has an infinite number of solutions because if you substitute any value into the original equation, both sides of the equation will be always equal.

hi there! my name is zalgo and i am here to you out today. the answer is pretty simple (in a way). this equation equals to 25.2!

i hope this answer !
