Answer:

option (2) and (5) is correct.

2) This equation has no solution.

5) Any input value for the variable will generate a false equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a solution to the equation,

-6( x + 5) + 3 = -2( x + 4) - 4x

⇒  –6x – 30 + 3 = –2x – 8 – 4x

⇒ –6x – 27 = –6x – 8

⇒  –27 = – 8

Which is false statement as -27 is never equal to -8.

Thus, This equation has no solution.

Also, if we substitute any value of x , then also the equality never hold.

For example lets put x = 1 in  -6( x + 5) + 3 = -2( x + 4) - 4x , we get,

⇒ -6( 1 + 5) + 3 = -2( 1 + 4) - 4(1)

⇒ -6( 6) + 3 = -2(5) - 4

⇒ -36 + 3 = -10 - 4

⇒ -33 = -14

Still the value is false as -33 is never equal to -14.

Any input value for the variable will generate a false equation.

Thus, option (2) and (5) is correct.
