2(2x+2)=4(x+4)
4x+4=4x+4
4=4
Infinitely many solutions

(2 points)
Based on the student's work, the equation was solved

The equation solved correctly would show that it has
solution(s)

1 answer

The student's work shows that they correctly simplified both sides of the equation to arrive at "4 = 4." This indicates that the equation is an identity, meaning it holds true for all values of \(x\). Therefore, the correct conclusion is that the equation has infinitely many solutions.

In summary, the equation solved is correct and reveals that it has infinitely many solutions.
