Answer:

infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

If we multiply as indicated, 4x + 12 = 2(2x + 6) becomes 4x + 12 = 4x + 12.

This is ALWAYS true, so the given equation has infinitely many solutions.

Answer:

Infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]4x + 12 = 2(2x + 6)[/tex]

Step 1: distribute on one side of the equation.

[tex]2(2x + 6)\\2\cdot2x = 4x\\2\cdot6=12[/tex]

[tex]4x + 12 = 4x + 12[/tex]

As you can see, this equation is balanced. And we've reached the end of our solution. Although we can still further solve, this result has shown that 4x + 12 is equal to 4x+ 12.

Therefore, this equation has infinitely many solutions.

We could still subtract 12 from both sides.

it would result in zero. So we have:

[tex]4x=4x\\[/tex]

This means 4 divided by 4. Four divide by four is 1

[tex]=1[/tex]

The equation would still have infinite ways of solving it.
