Nosaira solved an equation. Her work is shown below: 3(2x + 1 ) = 2(x + 1) + 1 6x + 3 = 2x + 2 + 1 6x + 3 = 2x + 3 4x = 0 x = 0 She determines the equation has no solution. Which best describes Nosaira’s work and answer? Her work is correct, but there is one solution rather than no solution. Her work is correct and her interpretation of the answer is correct. Her work is incorrect. She distributed incorrectly. Her work is incorrect. She moved terms across the equals sign incorrectly.

Answer:
Her work is correct, but there is one solution rather than no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Nosaira solved an equation like this :
→ 3(2x + 1) = 2(x + 1) + 1
→ 6x + 3 = 2x + 2 + 1
→ 6x + 3 = 2x + 3
→ 6x - 2x = 3 - 3
→ 4x = 0
→ x = 0/4
→ x = 0
According to her, there is no solution.
Equation solved by her is totally correct but there is a solution.
We take 0 as a solution rather than no solution.
So, 0 is a solution of the above equation.
