Answer: Infinite Solutions

Explanation:

Our task is to solve for x in the equation:


\sf{-3x-3=-3(x+1)}

Use the distributive property on the right side:


\sf{-3x-3=-3x-3}

Add 3 to both sides:


\sf{-3x=-3x+0}


\sf{-3x=-3x}

We can see that since the sides are identical, the equation has infinite solutions; it's true for any value of x.
