How many solutions does the

equation have?
8 + 3(𝑥 − 6) = −2 + 3𝑥 − 4

3 answers

One solution.

show that

8 + 3(x - 6) = -2 + 3x - 4
Expand the left side:
8 + 3x - 18 = -2 + 3x - 4
Combine like terms:
3x - 10 = 3x - 6
Subtract 3x from both sides to isolate the constants on one side:
-10 = -6
However, -10 does not equal -6. This means that there are no solutions to this equation.
