Question

4(x + 4) = 4x + 16
One Solution No solutions or infinite number of solutions

Answer 1

infinite number of solutions

Explanation:

4(x + 4) = 4x + 16

Distribute on the left side.

4x + 16 = 4x + 16

Subtract 16 from both sides.

4x = 4x

Divide both sides by 4.

x = x

x = x is a true equation for every value of x.

Answer: infinite number of solutions

Answer 2

Infinite Number of Solutions

Explanation:

Since 4*x= 4x

and 4*4= 16

its 4x+16

which is 4x+16=4x+16

Since there are the same, and both equal each other, there are an infinite number of solutions.
