How many solutions will the equation 2/3(6m+9)−6=4m have?

1 answer

To determine how many solutions the equation \( \frac{2}{3}(6m + 9) - 6 = 4m \) has, we will simplify and solve the equation step by step.

  1. First, distribute \( \frac{2}{3} \) to \( (6m + 9) \):

\[ \frac{2}{3}(6m) + \frac{2}{3}(9) = 4m + 6 \]

So, we can rewrite the equation:

\[ 4m + 6 - 6 = 4m \]

  1. Simplify the left side:

\[ 4m + 6 - 6 = 4m \] \[ 4m = 4m \]

This expression holds true for all values of \( m \).

Since every value of \( m \) satisfies the equation, this means that there are infinitely many solutions.

Thus, the equation \( \frac{2}{3}(6m + 9) - 6 = 4m \) has infinitely many solutions.
