After solving an equation, you end up with integers on both sides of the equation. What can you interpret about the equation are the same?

Answer:

The equation is:

An identity

Has infinitely many solutions

No solution

Explanation:

Because there is integers on both sides, we know that any attempts to fix this will either cause an identity, or a false numerical equation(an identity but w r o n g).(Note, an identity can either mean 2 = 2 or x = x).

Identities have infinite solutions, because it does not matter what you put in, the equation will always be true. False equations do not have a solution because they aren't even true equations.

Hope this helps!
