Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>
8(2x + 5) = 16x + 40
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute 8: 16x + 40 = 16x + 40
- Subtract 40 on both sides: 16x = 16x
- Divide 16 on both sides: x = x
Here we see that <em>x</em> does indeed equal <em>x</em>.
∴ <em>x</em> has an infinite amount of solutions.
