6. Consider the equation:
4(2 + px) = 12x
For what value of p does the equation have no solution?
A 1
B. 3
C 12
D. 48

p = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4(2 + px) = 12x

If the coefficient of the x- term is the same on both sides of the equation, it will have no solution.

Distributing gives

8 + 4px = 12x ( equate the coefficients of the x- term )

4p = 12 ( divide both sides by 4 )

p = 3

$4034.40

the perimeter of the field is the sum of the lengths of the four sides:

47 yd + 158 yd + 47 yd + 158 yd = 410 yd

the cost of 3 ft (1 yd) of fence is 3×$3.28 = $9.84.

so the cost of jake's wood perimeter fance is

(410 yd) × ($9.84 /yd) = $4034.40
