Answer:

1. Never True               2. Always True             3. Never True

4. Sometimes True (True when x = 0)             5. Never True

Step-by-step explanation:

1. x - 12 = x + 30

subtract x from both sides

-12 = 30

add 12 to both sides

0 = 42

Never True (no solutions)

2. 2(x+6) = 2x + 12

2x + 12 = 2x + 12

Always True (infinite solutions)

3. 3(x - 2) = 3x - 2

3x - 6 = 3x - 2

subtract 3x from both sides

-6 = -2

Never True (no solutions)

4. (x + 4)^2 = x^2 + 4^2

(x+4)^2 = (x+4)(x+4)

x^2 + 8x + 16 = x^2 + 4^2

subtract x^2 from both sides

8x + 16 = 16

subtract 16 from both sides

8x = 0

divide both sides by 8

x = 0

Sometimes True. It is true when x = 0.

5. x^2 + 4 = 0

Move 4 to the right

x^2 = -4

This statement is false because any value multiplied by itself (squared) can not equal a negative number.

Never True (no solutions)

Hope this helps!
