To find the number of solutions for the equation 8(x+2)=5x+16+3x, we need to simplify and solve for x.
First, distribute the 8 on the left side of the equation:
8x + 16 = 5x + 16 + 3x
Next, combine like terms on both sides:
8x + 16 = 8x + 16
We can observe that both sides are already equal, which means that the equation holds true for any value of x. Therefore, the equation has infinite solutions.
