Solve for x to determine if the equation has one, none, or infinite solutions. 3(x+2)−6=3x(1 point) Responses The equation has one solution: x=3. The equation has one solution: x equals 3 . The equation has infinite solutions. The equation has infinite solutions. The equation has no solution. The equation has no solution. The equation has one solution: x=−3.

1 answer

To solve the equation \( 3(x+2) - 6 = 3x \), we will first simplify the left side:

  1. Distribute on the left side: \[ 3(x+2) = 3x + 6 \] So, the equation becomes: \[ 3x + 6 - 6 = 3x \]
  2. Simplify: \[ 3x = 3x \]

Since both sides of the equation are identical (\(3x = 3x\)), this equation is true for all values of \(x\).

Therefore, the equation has infinite solutions.

The correct response is: The equation has infinite solutions.
