The table below shows two equations:



Equation 1 |3x − 1| + 7 = 2

Equation 2 |2x + 1| + 4 = 3



Which statement is true about the solution to the two equations?

Equation 1 and equation 2 have no solutions.

Equation 1 has no solution and equation 2 has solutions x = 0, 1.

The solutions to equation 1 are x = −1.3, 2 and equation 2 has no solution.

The solutions to equation 1 are x = −1.3, 2 and equation 2 has solutions x = 0, 1.

| 3x - 1 | + 7 = 2
| 3x - 1 | = 2 - 7
| 3x - 1 | = -5.....no solution because an absolute value cannot equal a negative number.

| 2x + 1 | + 4 = 3
| 2x + 1 | = 3 - 4
|2x + 1 | = -1...same thing...no solution..cannot equal a neg. number

so Eq. 1 and Eq. 2 both have NO SOLUTIONS :)
