Answer:

This is always true so there are infinite solutions

Explanation:

2(x+4)=4x+3-2x+5

To find the solution, the first step is to distribute

2x+8 =4x+3-2x+5

Combine like terms

2x+8= 2x+8

Subtract 2x from each side

2x+8 -2x = 2x+8-2x

8 = 8

This is always true so there are infinite solutions
