Question

How many solutions does the equation −2y + 2y + 3 = 3 have? One Zero Infinitely many Three

Answer 1

Infinitely many solutions.

Explanation:

In the equation −2y + 2y + 3 = 3 we see only one variable, and that variable is of the first power. Ordinarily, we'd say that this equation will have 1 solution. However, if we combine like terms, we get 0 + 3 = 3, or 0 = 0, which is true for any and all y values. Infinitely many solutions.

Answer 2

Infinitely

Explanation:

we have

`-2y+2y+3=3`

Group terms that contain the same variable

`-2y+2y=3-3`

Combine like terms

`0=0` ----> the equation is true for any value of y

therefore

The equation has infinite solutions
