Answer:

D, infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

Let's first simplify the left side:

3/4 z - 1/4 z + 1 = 2/4 z + 1

Clearly, once you simplify the left side, it's the exact same as the right side. This is a true equation: 2/4 z + 1 = 2/4 z + 1

For any value that you put in for z, it will always be equal, no matter what.

Thus, the equation has D, infinitely many solutions.

Hope this helps!
