Question

How do you solve `9-9(x+5) - 7 = 9+3(9-3x)-81`?

Answer 1

There is no solution

Explanation:

First expand everything using the distributive property:
`9-9(x+5)-7=9+3(9-3x)-81`
`9-9x-45-7=9+27-9x-81`
Then simplify both sides and solve:
`-43-9x=-45-9x`
`-43=-45`,
But wait, -43 can't equal -45, so what this means is that no matter what value of `x` you put in, it will never fix the equation, and so we refer to this as having no solution.

Answer 2

no solution

Explanation:

equation doesn't exist
