To solve the equation 6(2x+4)−24=12x, we will first distribute the 6 to the terms inside the parentheses:
12x + 24 - 24 = 12x
Next, we can combine like terms:
12x = 12x
We can see that both sides of the equation are equal, so no matter what value we substitute for x, the equation will always be true. Therefore, the equation has infinite solutions.
Answer: The equation has infinite solutions.
Solve for x to determine if the equation has one, none, or infinite solutions.
