How many solutions does this equation have?

6x-6/3 = 2x − 2

A no solution
B exactly one solution
C exactly two solutions
D infinitely many solutions

1 answer

Let's solve the equation step by step:

The given equation is:

\[ \frac{6x - 6}{3} = 2x - 2 \]

First, simplify the left side:

\[ \frac{6x}{3} - \frac{6}{3} = 2x - 2 \] \[ 2x - 2 = 2x - 2 \]

Now, we can see that the equation simplifies to:

\[ 2x - 2 = 2x - 2 \]

This means that both sides of the equation are identical. This implies that the equation is true for all values of \( x \).

Since there are no restrictions, we conclude that there are infinitely many solutions.

Thus, the correct answer is:

D: infinitely many solutions.
