Answer:

B, The only value that makes this equation true is x = 0

Explanation:

Julian used the following steps to solve the equation:

Step 1: 9x6+3(3+2)

Step 2: 9x--6+9x+6

Step 3: -9x -9x

Step 4: 0-6+6

Step 5: 0=0

In the final step, Julian obtained an equation of the form 0 = 0, which is always true. This means that any value of x will make the equation true. However, since the question asks for the meaning of the result 00, the answer is B. The only value of x that makes the equation true is x = 0.
