Answer:

zero

Explanation:

We want to determine whether the following equation has one, zero, or infinitely many solutions.

The equation is


- (2x + 2) - 1 = - x - (x + - 3)

Let us expand to get;


- 2x - 2 - 1 = - x - x + 3

Group similar terms


- 2x + x + x = 3 + 2 + 1

Combine similar terms;


0 = 6

This statement is not true.

Therefore the equation has no solution.
