Answer:

All values of x make the equation true.

Explanation:

When you work on an equation, if it ends with something like 5 = 5, y = y, or 13 = 13, it means that x has infinitely many solutions and so all and any value of x makes the equation true.

Only when you have something like 5 ≠ 7 or 16 ≠ 1, then there are no solutions for the value of x.

If there is a definite solution for x like x = 5, x = 1.3, then there is only one solution.
