Answer:

a = 1

Explanation:


(2)/(3) (9x - 3) = 2(3x - a)

One must simplify this expression, by distributing. In order to find a solution, where x has infinite solutions, one must make this equation an identity. That means that the equation will hold true, no matter what value of x is plugged in.


(2)/(3) (9x - 3) = 2(3x - a)

Distribute;

6x - 2 = 6x - 2a

Inverse operations;

6x - 2 = 6x - 2a

-6x -6x

-2 = -2a

1 = a

For this equation to be true no matter what, a must equal 1.
