1 answer

To solve the equation \(3(x + 2) - 6 = 3x\), follow these steps:

  1. Distribute the 3 on the left side: \[ 3x + 6 - 6 = 3x \]

  2. Simplify the left side: \[ 3x = 3x \]

At this point, we can see that both sides of the equation are equal for any value of \(x\). This means that the equation does not depend on a specific value of \(x\), implying that there are infinite solutions.

Thus, the correct response is: The equation has infinite solutions.
