A.1
B.2
C.3
D.4

variable ['vɛəriəbl] adj. 可变的,易变的
multiple ['mʌltipl] adj. 许多,多种多样的
equation [i'kweiʃən] n. 相等,方程(式), 等式,均衡
constant ['kɔnstənt] adj. 经常的,不变的
答案:D
解析:
Choice D is correct. A linear equation in onevariable will have no solution if the equationreduces to an equation of the form:
ax+b=cx+d, where a=c and b≠d.
Therefore, if a=4, the equation 4x+5=4x-3 yields 5=-3. This is not true for any values of x,and therefore this value of a results in an equation with no solutions.
