Solution
In integers, 4x – 1 = 8 has no solution.
Explanation:
Solve the given equation for x,
4x – 1 = 8
⇒ 4x = 8 + 1 ...[Transposing (–1) to RHS]
⇒ 4x = 9
⇒ `(4x)/4 = 9/4` ...[Dividing both sides by 4]
⇒ x = `9/4`
Since, the solution of the equation is not an integer, hence the equation has no solution.
