Question

In natural numbers, 4x + 5 = –7 has ______ solution.

Fill in the Blanks

Solution

In natural numbers, 4x + 5 = –7 has no solution.

Explanation:

Solve the equation for x,

4x + 5 = –7

⇒ 4x = –7 – 5  ......[Transposing 5 to RHS]

⇒ 4x = –12

⇒ x = –3  .......[Dividing both sides by 3]

Since, the value of x is not natural number, hence the equation has no solution in natural numbers.
