Given the following equation:


4b-1=-4+4b+3

You can follow the steps shown below in order to solve for the variable "b":

1. You can add the like terms on the right side of the equation:


4b-1=4b-1

2. You can observe that the left side of the equation is equal to the right side, so if you solve for "b" its coefficient will be zero:


\begin{gathered} 4b-4b=-1+1 \\ 0=0 \end{gathered}

This is a statement that is always true. When this happens, the solution of the equation is all the Real numbers.

Therefore, the answer is: The equation has an infinite number of solutions.
