Question

How many solutions are there on the equation below 16(x+2)-8=16x+24

Answer 1

Answer:

Infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

First,

$16(x+2)=16\cdot x+16\cdot 2=16x+32.$

Then

$16(x+2)-8=16x+32-8=16x+24.$

The equation becomes

$16x+24=16x+24.$

This equation is always true equality (because left and right parts are the same for all possible values of x). This means that equation has infinitely many solutions.
