Question

Which of the following equations does not
have a solution in integers?
a. x+1= 1
b. x-1=3
c. 2x+1=6
d. 1-x=5​

Answer 1

Answer:

c is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+1=6

2x=6-1

2x=5

x=5/2

this is the solution in rational numbers.

Answer 2

This is the answer because the equation 2x+1 does not have the answer in integers, which are all the negative numbers, 0 and all the positive numbers. The answer is a fraction, thus not being a whole, natural, positive or negative number.
