Question

Which statement is true about this equation?

-(2x+4)+x=3x-4x-4

Answer 1

That the equation could be combined into like terms

Answer 2

The equation has infinitely many solutions.

Explanation:

First, apply the distributive property to eliminate the parentheses

Next, combine like terms on each side of the equation

Finally, use the properties of equality to isolate x

Because the variable terms cancel out, leaving the same number on both sides of the equal sign, the equation has infinitely many solutions.
