Answer:

All real numbers.

Explanation:

If both sides, when simplified, equals each other, the answer will be "all real numbers". Simplify the left side. Distribute 2 to all terms within the parenthesis:

2(x + 1) = (2 * x) + (2 * 1) = 2x + 2

2x + 2 = 2x + 2 ∴ A) All real numbers is your answer.
