3( x - 4) + 1 = 2x - 5 is it no solution or infinite solution or x = 16 or one solution

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

remove the parenthesis

3(x-4)+1=2x-5

calculate

3x-12+1=2x-5

move the terms

3x-11=2x-5

collect like terms and calculate

3x-2x=-5+11

solution

x=6

the correct answer is option c.   3

step-by-step explanation:

points to remember

equation of the line with coordinates (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by,

slope m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

from the figure we can see a line with two coordinates given

to find the slope of given line

here   (x₁, y₁)   = (-1, -1 ) and (x₂, y₂) = (1, 5)

slope m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

  = (5 - -1)/(1 - -1)

  = (5 + 1)/(1 + 1)

  = 6/2 = 3

therefore the correct answer is option c.   3
