Solving 2+2x=3+2x can provide justification that the equation does not have a solution. Investigate this equation using a graph and inverse operations.

Step-by-step explanation:

The main goal is to separate the values on opposite sides of the equal sign.

2 + 2x = 3 + 2x

-2 -2 ⬅Subtract 2 from both expressions

2x = 1 + 2x

-2x - 2x ⬅Subtract 2x from both sides.

0 = 1

0 does not equal 1, which means that this equation is inconsistent. In other words, there is no solution. 0 does not equal 1, so 2 + 2x does not equal 3 + 2x.

I hope this helps! :)

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.
