Explanation:


5(2x - 3) = x - 15 + 9x \\ 10x - 15 = 10 x - 15

Both the sides are equal

Hence no specific value of x

Therefore, x has infinite value.

Answer:

Given

  • 5(2x – 3) = x – 15 + 9x

Solving for x

  • 5(2x – 3) = x – 15 + 9x
  • 10x - 15 = 10x - 15

Both sides are equal, any value of x is a solution, so infinitely many solutions
