Answer

The equation has infinitely many solutions.

Since 12 is always equal to 12, the equation will have infinitely many solutions.

Step-by-step explanation

4 (4x + 3) = 19x + 9 - 3x + 3

4(4x) + 4(3) = 19x + 9 - 3x + 3

16x + 12 = (19x - 3x) + (9 + 3)

16x + 12 = 16x + 12

Subtract 16x from both sides

16x - 16x + 12 = 16x - 16x + 12

12 = 12

Since 12 is always equal to 12, the equation will have infinitely many solutions.

Hope this Helps!!!
