Question

Mrs. Porte wrote the equation below on the board.

ax+7=8x+b



Enter values of a and b for which x has infinitely many solutions in Mrs. Porte’s equation.

Answer 1

a = 8

b = 7

Explanation:

For us to have infinitely many solutions, then what we have on the right side must be equal to what is on the left

In this case, our a value will be equal to 8 whole out b value will be equal to 7
