2x + 3 + 4x = 6x + 3

Combine the like terms on the left side

2x + 4x = 6x

6x + 3= 6x + 3

Subtract 3 from each side

6x = 6x

Divide each side by 6

x = x

No matter what x is, they are the same. It has infinite solutions.

2x + 3 + 4x = 6x + 3

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Combine like terms: 6x + 3 = 6x + 3
  2. Subtract 3 on both sides: 6x = 6x
  3. Divide 6 on both sides: x = x

Here we see that x does indeed equal to x.

∴ x = infinite amount of solutions.
