Question

How many solutions are there to the equation below?

8 (x-3) = 8x-24

Answer 1

infinite number of solutions

Explanation:

Given

8(x - 3) = 8x - 24 ← distribute left side

8x - 24 = 8x - 24

The expressions on both sides are equal

Hence any real value of x is a solution

That is there are an infinite number of solutions
