No Solution.

Once you combine the like terms 4n-2n of the second equation you end up with

2n+4 = 2n+1.

There is no value of n that results in a true equation.

Answer:

0 solutions

Explanation:

2n + 4 = 4n + 1 - 2n

first combine like terms (right side)

2n + 4 = 2n + 1

but this part you can tell that there's 0 solutions, because both sides have 2n/ same variable with same number.
