To solve the equation \(2x + 3 = 2x + 7\), we will follow these steps:

1. **Subtract \(2x\) from both sides**:
\[
2x + 3 - 2x = 2x + 7 - 2x
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
3 = 7
\]

2. **Analyze the resulting statement**:
The statement \(3 = 7\) is a contradiction; it is false and cannot be true.

Since we arrived at a contradiction, this tells us that the original equation has **no solutions**.

### Conclusion:
The equation \(2x + 3 = 2x + 7\) has **no solutions**.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
To solve the equation \(7x + 3 = 7x + 3\), we follow these steps:

1. **Subtract \(7x\) from both sides**:
\[
7x + 3 - 7x = 7x + 3 - 7x
\]
Simplifying this gives:
\[
3 = 3
\]

2. **Analyze the resulting statement**:
The statement \(3 = 3\) is always true; it is a tautology.

Since the equation simplifies to an identity (a statement that is always true), this tells us that there are **infinitely many solutions**. Any value for \(x\) will satisfy the original equation.

### Conclusion:
The equation \(7x + 3 = 7x + 3\) has **infinitely many solutions**.

To solve the equation \(4x + 22 = 8 + 10\), follow these steps:

1. **Simplify the right side**:
\[
8 + 10 = 18
\]
So the equation becomes:
\[
4x + 22 = 18
\]

2. **Subtract 22 from both sides**:
\[
4x + 22 - 22 = 18 - 22
\]
Simplifying this gives:
\[
4x = -4
\]

3. **Divide both sides by 4**:
\[
x = \frac{-4}{4}
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
x = -1
\]

### Conclusion:
The equation \(4x + 22 = 8 + 10\) has **one solution**, which is \(x = -1\).
Answered by GPT-4o mini
Sure! Here’s a more concise version:

To solve \(4x + 22 = 8 + 10\):

1. Simplify the right side:
\[
8 + 10 = 18
\]
So, the equation is:
\[
4x + 22 = 18
\]

2. Subtract 22 from both sides:
\[
4x = 18 - 22 \implies 4x = -4
\]

3. Divide by 4:
\[
x = \frac{-4}{4} \implies x = -1
\]

### Conclusion:
The equation has **one solution**, \(x = -1\).

4x + 22 - 8x = 10
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
-4x + 22 = 10
\]

2. **Subtract 22 from both sides**:
\[
-4x = 10 - 22
\]
Which simplifies to:
\[
-4x = -12
\]

3. **Divide both sides by -4**:
\[
x = \frac{-12}{-4} \implies x = 3
\]

### Conclusion:
The equation \(4x + 22 = 8x + 10\) has **one solution**, \(x = 3\).

To solve the equation \(5x + 5 = 5x + 4\), follow these steps:

1. **Subtract \(5x\) from both sides**:
\[
5x + 5 - 5x = 5x + 4 - 5x
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
5 = 4
\]

2. **Analyze the resulting statement**:
The statement \(5 = 4\) is false.

Since we arrived at a contradiction, this indicates that the original equation has **no solutions**.

### Conclusion:
The equation \(5x + 5 = 5x + 4\) has **no solutions**.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
To solve the equation \(3x + 10 = 5x + 8\), follow these steps:

1. **Rearrange the equation** by subtracting \(3x\) from both sides:
\[
3x + 10 - 3x = 5x + 8 - 3x
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
10 = 2x + 8
\]

2. **Subtract 8 from both sides**:
\[
10 - 8 = 2x + 8 - 8
\]
Which simplifies to:
\[
2 = 2x
\]

3. **Divide both sides by 2**:
\[
x = \frac{2}{2} \implies x = 1
\]

### Conclusion:
The equation \(3x + 10 = 5x + 8\) has **one solution**, \(x = 1\).
Answered by GPT-4o mini
Let's clarify that step in detail. Here's the equation again to see where the 2 comes from:

We start with the equation:
\[
3x + 10 = 5x + 8
\]

After rearranging by subtracting \(3x\) from both sides, we get:
\[
10 = 5x - 3x + 8
\]
which simplifies to:
\[
10 = 2x + 8
\]

### Continuing from this step correctly:

Next, we subtract 8 from both sides:
\[
10 - 8 = 2x + 8 - 8
\]
This gives us:
\[
2 = 2x
\]

Then we divide both sides by 2:
\[
x = \frac{2}{2} \implies x = 1
\]

### Conclusion:
So the correct process shows that \(2\) comes from the subtraction \(10 - 8\).

The equation \(3x + 10 = 5x + 8\) has **one solution**, \(x = 1\). Thank you for your patience!

\]
This simplifies to:
\[
18 = 2x + 8
\]

2. **Subtract 8 from both sides**:
\[
18 - 8 = 2x + 8 - 8
\]
Which simplifies to:
\[
10 = 2x
\]

3. **Divide both sides by 2**:
\[
x = \frac{10}{2} \implies x = 5
\]

### Conclusion:
The equation \(3x + 18 = 5x + 8\) has **one solution**, \(x = 5\).
Answered by GPT-4o mini
It seems there might be a slight misunderstanding in the way the equation is written in your question, as it appears to contain an '=' sign within the parentheses. If you're looking to solve the equation \(3(4x + 8) = 4(3x + 6)\), I will proceed with that assumption. If that’s not what you meant, please clarify.

Let’s solve the equation \(3(4x + 8) = 4(3x + 6)\):

1. **Distribute** on both sides:

\[
3 \cdot 4x + 3 \cdot 8 = 4 \cdot 3x + 4 \cdot 6
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
12x + 24 = 12x + 24
\]

2. **Rearrange** the equation:

\[
12x + 24 - 12x = 12x + 24 - 12x
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
24 = 24
\]

3. **Analyze the resulting statement**:
The equation \(24 = 24\) is always true, indicating that it is an identity.

### Conclusion:
The equation \(3(4x + 8) = 4(3x + 6)\) has **infinitely many solutions**. Any value for \(x\) will satisfy the equation.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
When an equation has an infinite number of solutions, it means that there are countless values of the variable(s) that satisfy the equation. This situation typically arises in two main scenarios:

1. **Identities**:
- An equation that simplifies to a true statement regardless of the value of the variable (e.g., \(x + 2 = x + 2\) or \(3(4x + 8) = 4(3x + 6)\)).
- These equations hold true for any value of the variable. For example, if we simplify both sides of such an equation and end up with something like \(0 = 0\) or \(24 = 24\), it indicates that every value of \(x\) is a solution.

2. **Dependent Equations**:
- In systems of equations, if you have multiple equations that essentially represent the same line or equation, they will intersect at infinitely many points. For example, the equations \(y = 2x + 3\) and \(2y = 4x + 6\) represent the same line in a graphical sense.

### Implications of Infinitely Many Solutions:
- **Flexibility**: You can choose any value for the variable(s), and it will satisfy the equation.
- **Graphically**: If you were to graph the equation, you would typically see a line or a plane, depending on the number of variables, representing all the possible solutions.
- **Mathematical Context**: This situation often appears in linear algebra, where equations are solved simultaneously, and the lines or planes represented by the equations overlap completely.

### Conclusion:
An equation with infinitely many solutions does not lead to a single answer but rather a whole set of values that meet the conditions specified by the equation, making it essential to understand the context in which these solutions occur.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
When an equation has an infinite number of solutions, it means that any value you choose for the variable will satisfy the equation. This happens in two main scenarios:

1. **Identities**:
- An equation simplifies to a true statement for any value (e.g., \(x + 2 = x + 2\)). This means every number for \(x\) works.

2. **Equivalent Equations**:
- Sometimes equations are just different forms of the same thing. For example, \(y = 2x + 3\) and \(2y = 4x + 6\) represent the same line on a graph.

### Implications:
- **Flexibility**: You can pick any value for the variable.
- **Graph Representation**: The solution set might look like a line on a graph.

### Conclusion:
Infinitely many solutions mean you can use any value for the variable, and it will still be a solution to the equation.

Let's go through the equation step-by-step to identify any errors and solve it correctly:

The original equation is:
\[
3x + 2x - 6 = 24
\]

### Step 1: Combine like terms
Combine \(3x\) and \(2x\):
\[
(3x + 2x) - 6 = 24
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
5x - 6 = 24
\]

### Step 2: Isolate the variable
Add \(6\) to both sides of the equation:
\[
5x - 6 + 6 = 24 + 6
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
5x = 30
\]

### Step 3: Solve for \(x\)
Now, divide both sides by \(5\):
\[
x = \frac{30}{5}
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
x = 6
\]

### Conclusion
The correct solution to the equation \(3x + 2x - 6 = 24\) is \(x = 6\). The mistake in your original solution was in the incorrect handling of the arithmetic after combining like terms.
Answered by GPT-4o mini
Sure! Let’s break it down simply:

Starting with the equation:
\[
3x + 2x - 6 = 24
\]

### Step 1: Combine like terms
Add \(3x\) and \(2x\):
\[
5x - 6 = 24
\]

### Step 2: Get rid of \(-6\)
Add \(6\) to both sides:
\[
5x = 30
\]

### Step 3: Solve for \(x\)
Divide by \(5\):
\[
x = 6
\]

**Conclusion**: The correct answer is \(x = 6\).
Answered by GPT-4o mini
Let's identify the mistakes in your original steps and explain them clearly:

### Original Work:
1. **Original equation**:
\[
3x + 2x - 6 = 24
\]

2. **Combining terms (incorrectly referenced)**:
- You correctly combined \(3x + 2x\) to get \(5x\), but the following steps were not shown correctly.

3. **Subtracting and adding**:
- You wrote:
\[
-2 \quad -2 \quad \text{(this doesn't apply correctly here)}
\]
- And then wrote \(2 - 6 = 24\), which seems to be a misunderstanding of steps because this equation does not accurately follow from the previous line.

4. **Final incorrect result**:
- You jumped to:
\[
x = 30
\]
But you did not correctly follow the algebra that leads to solving for \(x\).

### The Correct Process:
1. **Correctly combine like terms**:
- After combining, you should have:
\[
5x - 6 = 24
\]

2. **Correctly isolating \(5x\)**:
- To isolate \(5x\), you needed to add \(6\) to both sides:
\[
5x = 24 + 6 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 5x = 30
\]

3. **Correctly solving for \(x\)**:
- Then divide by \(5\):
\[
x = \frac{30}{5} \quad \Rightarrow \quad x = 6
\]

### Summary of Mistakes:
- Incorrectly added or subtracted values that didn’t apply to the original equation.
- Misstated the result of the operations, which led to the wrong conclusion of \(x = 30\).

### Final Conclusion:
The correct solution to the equation \(3x + 2x - 6 = 24\) is \(x = 6\). It’s important to follow each algebraic step carefully to avoid any errors.
