Question

How many solutions does the equation y + 12 = y + 10 + 2 have?

Zero

One

Two

Infinitely many

Answer 1

Infinitely many

Explanation:

1. Subtract y from both sides:

y-y + 12 = y-y + 10 + 2

12 = 10 + 2

2. Simplify:

12 = 12

Because the left and right side are equal, then there are infinitely many solutions.

hope this helps!
