Jessica was solving an equation. After she finished simplifying, her result was 0=2. This result confused her. Explain to Jessica what her result means. Explain your reasoning thoroughly.

Sagot :

It means that the equations are not true. The straight lines are always parallel to the X-axis in all cases Therefore, the line doesn't cut the X-axis. This means that: there is no solution to the equation

Jessica's result means that any value of x (or any variable she used) would not be a solution to the equation. When something like 0 = 2 comes up, they answer is no solution.

For Your Information:

If you get 2=2 or 0=0 or anything like that, the solutions are all real numbers. Any value of x (or any variable used) will be a solution to the equation.
