To solve the equation, we need to simplify and isolate the variable x.
8 + 2(x-6) = -2 + 2x - 2
Distribute the 2 on the left side:
8 + 2x - 12 = -2 + 2x - 2
Combine like terms:
2x - 4 = 2x - 4
In this case, the equation simplifies to 2x - 4 = 2x - 4, which means that both sides are equal and there are infinitely many solutions.
Therefore, the equation has an infinite number of solutions.
