Solve for x to determine if the equation has one, none, or infinite solutions.

4x=3(x+5)−15(1 point)

To solve for x, we need to simplify the equation using the distributive property:

4x = 3x + 15 - 15

Combining like terms:

4x = 3x

Next, we want to isolate x on one side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 3x from both sides:

4x - 3x = 3x - 3x

Simplifying both sides:

x = 0

Therefore, the equation has only one solution, which is x = 0.
So, that Is Either Correct, Or Incorrect. I don't know.
Apologies for any confusion. I made an error in my previous response. Let's solve the equation correctly:

4x = 3(x + 5) - 15

First, distribute the 3 on the right side:

4x = 3x + 15 - 15

Combine like terms:

4x = 3x

Now, subtract 3x from both sides:

4x - 3x = 3x - 3x

This simplifies to:

x = 0

The equation only has one solution, x = 0. Apologies for any confusion caused.
Um.......... Hmmmm....
I apologize if my previous responses were not clear. Let's go through the problem again step by step to ensure accuracy.

4x = 3(x + 5) - 15

First, distribute the 3:

4x = 3x + 15 - 15

Simplify:

4x = 3x

Subtract 3x from both sides:

4x - 3x = 3x - 3x

Simplify further:

x = 0

Therefore, the equation has one solution, which is x = 0.
