The step you provided:

\[ 3z/2 - 5 + 5 = 10 + 5 \]

is justified by the Addition Property of Equality. This property states that if you add the same value to both sides of an equation, the equality is maintained. Therefore, the correct response is:

Addition Property of Equality.

To solve the equation

\[ \frac{2f}{5} - \frac{8}{5} + 2f = 8, \]

first, let's combine the like terms on the left side. We can rewrite \(2f\) as \(\frac{10f}{5}\) to have a common denominator:

\[ \frac{2f}{5} + \frac{10f}{5} - \frac{8}{5} = 8. \]

Now, combine the \(f\) terms:

\[ \frac{2f + 10f - 8}{5} = 8. \]

This simplifies to:

\[ \frac{12f - 8}{5} = 8. \]

Next, to eliminate the fraction, multiply both sides by 5:

\[ 12f - 8 = 40. \]

Now, add 8 to both sides:

\[ 12f = 48. \]

Finally, divide both sides by 12:

\[ f = 4. \]

Thus, the solution is:

To determine how many solutions the equation

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

has, we'll simplify it step-by-step:

  1. Distribute \(\frac{2}{3}\):

\[ \frac{2}{3} \cdot 6m + \frac{2}{3} \cdot 9 - 6 = 4m \]

This simplifies to:

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

  1. Combine like terms on the left side:

\[ 4m = 4m. \]

At this point, we can see that the equation simplifies to \(4m = 4m\).

This means that both sides are equal for any value of \(m\), indicating that there are infinite solutions.

Thus, the answer is:

infinite/many solutions.

4=k2+5 and 4j−14/3+5=3

To determine which pair of linear equations has the same solution set, we can simplify and solve each of the pairs given. Let's analyze them one by one.

  1. Pair 1: \[ 2(3g+5)-2g=2(4-g) \] First, simplify both sides: \[ 6g + 10 - 2g = 8 - 2g \] Combining like terms gives: \[ 4g + 10 = 8 - 2g \implies 6g = -2 \implies g = -\frac{1}{3} \]

    The second part: \[ -\frac{36h}{6} = 2 \implies -6h = 2 \implies h = -\frac{1}{3} \]

    Solution set: The first equation's solution is \(g = -\frac{1}{3}\) and the second one is \(h = -\frac{1}{3}\).

  2. Pair 2: \[ 3(m+1)=10 \] Simplifying, \[ 3m + 3 = 10 \implies 3m = 7 \implies m = \frac{7}{3} \]

    Second part: \[ 6n + 3 = 6 - n \implies 7n = 3 \implies n = \frac{3}{7} \]

    Solution set: Different solutions.

  3. Pair 3: \[ 4k - 5 = 2k \implies 2k = 5 \implies k = \frac{5}{2} \]

    Second part: \[ 8j - 2 = 3j \implies 5j = 2 \implies j = \frac{2}{5} \]

    Solution set: Different solutions.

  4. Pair 4: \[ 4 = k^2 + 5 \implies k^2 = -1 \implies \text{no real solutions} \]

    Second part: \[ 4j - \frac{14}{3} + 5 = 3 \implies 4j = 3 - 5 + \frac{14}{3} \] Solving this is more complex, but ultimately also does not yield real solutions.

Conclusion:

The only pair with the same solution set is the first one:

2(3g+5)−2g=2(4−g) and −36h/6=2, both yielding the solution \(g = -\frac{1}{3}\) and \(h = -\frac{1}{3}\).

Let's solve each equation to determine the solution sets and check who is correct.

Equation A:

\[ 3(4 - 5h) - 7 = -12 + 2h \] Distributing on the left side: \[ 12 - 15h - 7 = -12 + 2h \] Simplifying: \[ 5 - 15h = -12 + 2h \] Now, add \(15h\) to both sides: \[ 5 = -12 + 17h \] Adding 12 to both sides: \[ 17 = 17h \] Dividing by 17: \[ h = 1 \]

Equation B:

\[ 2(p - 3) - 1 = \frac{6p + 14}{2} \] Distributing on the left side: \[ 2p - 6 - 1 = 3p + 7 \] Combining like terms: \[ 2p - 7 = 3p + 7 \] Subtracting \(2p\) from both sides: \[ -7 = p + 7 \] Subtracting 7 from both sides: \[ -14 = p \]

Equation C:

\[ \frac{2}{3}v - 3 + \frac{8}{3} = -1 \] Combining the constant terms (\(-3\) and \(\frac{8}{3}\)): Convert \(-3\) to a fraction: \[ -3 = -\frac{9}{3} \] So, \[ \frac{2}{3}v - \frac{9}{3} + \frac{8}{3} = -1 \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{2}{3}v - \frac{1}{3} = -1 \] Now, adding \(\frac{1}{3}\) to both sides: \[ \frac{2}{3}v = -1 + \frac{1}{3} \] Finding a common denominator for \(-1\): \[ -1 = -\frac{3}{3}, \quad \text{so} \quad -\frac{3}{3} + \frac{1}{3} = -\frac{2}{3} \] Thus: \[ \frac{2}{3}v = -\frac{2}{3} \] Now, multiply both sides by \(\frac{3}{2}\): \[ v = -1 \]

Summary of Solutions:

  • Equation A: \(h = 1\)
  • Equation B: \(p = -14\)
  • Equation C: \(v = -1\)

Conclusion:

  • Tamara states that Equation A (\(h = 1\)) and Equation C (\(v = -1\)) have the same solution: Incorrect.
  • Payton states that Equation B (\(p = -14\)) and Equation C (\(v = -1\)) have the same solution: Incorrect.
  • Krish states that all three equations have the same solution: Incorrect.
  • Haruki states that none of the equations have the same solution: Correct.

Thus, Haruki is the correct one.
