Choose all answers that apply:
(Choice A)
[29x+29=29x-11]
A
[29x+29=29x-11]
(Choice B)
[29x+92=29x-11]
B
[29x+92=29x-11]
(Choice C)
[29x+11=29x-11]
C
[29x+11=29x-11]
(Choice D)
[29x-29=29x-11]
D
[29x-29=29x-11]
Solution
To determine which equations have no solutions, we can simplify each equation and check whether they lead to a contradiction.
Choice A:
Subtract from both sides: This is a contradiction, so Choice A has no solutions.
Choice B:
Subtract from both sides: This is also a contradiction, so Choice B has no solutions.
Choice C:
Subtract from both sides: This is a contradiction as well, so Choice C has no solutions.
Choice D:
Subtract from both sides: This is a contradiction too, so Choice D has no solutions.
Conclusion:
All of the given equations lead to contradictions and therefore have no solutions. Thus, the correct answer is:
- Choice A
- Choice B
- Choice C
- Choice D
