1 answer

Step 1: Use the Distributive Property to get 2g + 16 = 2g + 8 resulting equation.

Step 2: Use the Subtraction of equality Property to get 2g + 16 - 2g = 2g + 8 - 2g resulting equation.
Simplifying the equation, we get 16 = 8.

Step 3: There is no solution (infinite solutions) because the resulting equation is not true.
