Answer:

The given expression has Infinitely many solutions.

Explanation:

Here, the given expression is: 3 ( x - 1 ) - 2 x = - 2 x + 3 ( x - 1 )

Distributive Property :

A ( B - C ) = AB - AC

Solving the above expression for x, we get:

3 ( x - 1 ) - 2 x = - 2 x + 3 ( x - 1 )

⇒ 3 x - 1(3) - 2 x = - 2 x + 3( x) - 3

or, 3x - 3 - 2x = - 2x+ 3x - 3

or, -3x + 3x -2x + 2x -3 + 3 = 0

or, 0 = 0

⇒The simplification of the above expression is of the form 0 = 0

Hence for 0 = 0, the given expression has Infinitely many solutions.
