Candice wrote the four equations below. She examined them, without solving them, to determine which equation has an infinite number of solutions.

Negative 5 x + 1 = negative 5 x + 1. Negative 2 x + 1 = negative 2 x + 2. 3 x + 5 = 3 x minus 5. 4 x minus 2 = x + 1.

Which of Candice’s equations has an infinite number of solutions?
Negative 5 x + 1 = negative 5 x + 1
Negative 2 x + 1 = negative 2 x + 2
3 x + 5 = 3 x minus 5
4 x minus 2 = x + 1
