Try to solve the problem in different ways, if you get the same answer every time then there a multiple solutions, when they teach you those problems in class, pay attention to if they shout you how to solve the problem in different ways.

Hope this helps!

Please, I’ve been having a lot of people report my answers for nothing, please don’t do that, you ruin my account, I think you would be angry if I did that to you. I’d appreciate it if you didn’t report me for no reason, thank you :)

Have an awesome day everyone!

Answer:

  • C. infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

We can tell that an equation has multiple/ infinitely many solutions if we try to solve it and get a variable or a number equal to itself.

Let's solve the given equation and see what we'll get :-


\sf 15-10b-6=-10b+9

Add 10b to both sides:-


\sf 15-10b-6+10b=-10b+9+10b

Simplify:-


\sf 15-6=9

Subtract:-


\sf 15-6=9


\sf 9=9

As we can see, both sides ended up equal, therefore, this equation has infinitely many solutions!
