VladimirAG [237]3 years ago

4 0

Answer:

Infinite

Step-by-step explanation:

3(4x + 1) - 2

= 12x + 3 - 2 (Multiply the sum in the bracket by 3)

= 12x + 1 (Simplify)

This means that:

12x + 1 = 3(4x + 1) - 2

is the same as

12x + 1 = 12x + 1

Hence, anything that is used to substitute x is correct.
