Is 16 equals 16 no solution?
16 = 16 is an identity, not an equation. An identity does not have solutions.
If an equation is an identity what is true about the solution?
It is true for all permissible values of any variables in the equation. More simply put, it is always true.
What is difference in an equation that results an identity and one that results in no solution?
The difference is that one is true for all values of "x" (or whatever variable you use), the other for no value of the variable. It isn't always obvious just by looking at the equation whether is an identity (true for all values of the variable), or whether it has one solution, several solutions, or none. However, if you solve it, you'll soon find that out.
How can you tell when an equation has a solution of no solution?
If one side is like this: 0=2 then no it is not equal to in this case you would do a 0 with a line through it. If it is like this: 2=2, or x=2 then it is equal to.P.S. If it is like this 2=2 then its called the identity property.
The number one is called the what identity?
One is the multiplicative identity or the identity of/for multiplication.
