consider solving the equation for x 3 (3x + 4) —5 = ax + b Which statements are true about the solution to the equation when substituting values for a and b as as specified? Select all that apply. A. If a=−3 and b=4 , then there is exactly one solution to the equation. B. If a=−9 and b=13 , then there is no solution to the equation. C. If a=9 and b=−2 , then there is no solution to the equation. D. If a=−3 and b=−5 , then there are infinitely many solutions to the equation. E. If a=9 and b=7 , then there is exactly one solution to the equation.

Respuesta :

3 (3x + 4) —5 = ax + b 

Lets simplify

9x + 12 - 5 = ax + b
9x + 7 = ax + b

The answer would be C because then it would have a coeiffient the same, and a "lonely" number different, which gives it NO solution. 

Answer: C. If a=9 and b=−2 , then there is no solution to the equation.
