Answer:The answer is no.4 i.e. infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

Given the equation
4s+8=3+5+4s

When we solve it


4s+8=8+4s

Since the terms on the left hand side is the same on the right hand side

∴ Putting any value of s will satisfy the equation

For ex : 3


4* 3+8\\=8+4* 3

Similarly the equation will be satisfied with infinitely many values
