Question

Monday Bellwork Which solution would make this equation have infinitely many solutions? 6(x – 3) + x = 7x +

-18, -9, 18, or 9​

Answer 1

Answer:-18

Explanation:

6(x−3)+x=7x−18

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6(x−3)+x=7x−18

(6)(x)+(6)(−3)+x=7x+−18(Distribute)

6x+−18+x=7x+−18

(6x+x)+(−18)=7x−18(Combine Like Terms)

7x+−18=7x−18

7x−18=7x−18

Step 2: Subtract 7x from both sides.

7x−18−7x=7x−18−7x

−18=−18

Step 3: Add 18 to both sides.

−18+18=−18+18
