Answer:

B 2x-31 = -2x-31

Explanation:

A is exactly the same on the left side as the right so it has infinite solutions

B 2x-31 = -2x-31

Add 2x on each side

2x+2x-31 = -2x+2x-31

4x -31 = 31

Add 31

4x =62

This has one solution

C 2x+31 = 2x-31

Subtract 2x from each side

31 = -31

This is never true so it has no solutions

D 2x-2 = 2x-31

Subtract 2x from each side

-2 = -31

This is never true so it has no solutions
