Answer:

Infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

5x + 3(x – 5) = 6x + 2x – 15

5x + 3(x) + 3(–5) = 6x + 2x – 15

5x + 3x – 15 = 8x – 15

8x – 15 = 8x – 15

This equation has infinitely many solutions.

Why? because they have the same terms on both sides of the equation, everything is the same.

B.

One property that was used to solve this equation is the distributive property 3(x – 5).

Hope this helps!
