It is no solution, or it equals 0.

1) Subtract the equal terms from both sides

48x+43=47x+43

48x=47x

2) Move the variable to left side and change it's sign

48x-47x=0

3) Collect the like terms

x=0

The answer looks like it would be no solution because if you do 48x- 47x= 1x and 43-43=0 and 1x does not equal 0
