Okay, so, to find out if an equation has one solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solutions, we must first solve the equation:
(a) 6x + 4x - 6 = 24 + 9x
First, combine the like-terms on both sides of the equal sign:
10x - 6 = 24 + 9x
Now, we need to get the numbers with the variable 'x,' on the same side, by subtracting, in this case:
10x - 6 = 24 + 9x
-9x. -9x
______________
X - 6 = 24
Now, we do the opposite of subtraction, and add 6 to both sides:
X - 6 = 24
+6 +6
_________
X = 30
So, this particular equation has one solution.
(a). One solution
_____________________________________________________
(b) 25 - 4x = 15 - 3x + 10 - x
Okay, so again, we combine the like-terms, on the same side of the equal sign:
25 - 4x = 25 - 2x
Now, we get the 2 numbers with the variable 'x,' to the same side of the equal sign:
25 - 4x = 25 - 2x
+ 2x + 2x
________________
25 - 2x = 25
Next, we do the opposite of addition, and, subtract 25 on each side:
25 - 2x = 25
-25 -25
___________
-2x = 0
Finally, because we can't divide 0 by -2, this tells us that this has an infinite number of solutions.
(b) An infinite number of solutions.
__________________________________________________
(c) 4x + 8 = 2x + 7 + 2x - 20
Again, we combine the like-terms, on the same side as the equal sign:
4x + 8 = 4x - 13
Now, we get the 'x' variables on the same side, again, and, we do that by doing the opposite of addition, which, is subtraction:
4x + 8 = 4x - 13
-4x -4x
______________
8 = -13
Finally, because there is no longer an 'x' or variable, we know that this equation has no solution.
(c) No Solution

I hope this helps!
325 miles total.
23.95x4 =95.8
200-95.80
=$104.20
104.20 divided by.32 is 325.6 so in total 325 miles.
This question is in reverse (in two ways):
<span>1. The definition of an additive inverse of a number is precisely that which, when added to the number, will give a sum of zero. </span>
<span>The real problem, in certain fields, is usually to show that for all numbers in that field, there exists an additive inverse. </span>
<span>Therefore, if you tell me that you have a number, and its additive inverse, and you plan to add them together, then I can tell you in advance that the sum MUST be zero. </span>
<span>2. In your question, you use the word "difference", which does not work (unless the number is zero - 0 is an integer AND a rational number, and its additive inverse is -0 which is the same as 0 - the difference would be 0 - -0 = 0). </span>
<span>For example, given the number 3, and its additive inverse -3, if you add them, you get zero: </span>
<span>3 + (-3) = 0 </span>
<span>However, their "difference" will be 6 (or -6, depending which way you do the difference): </span>
<span>3 - (-3) = 6 </span>
<span>-3 - 3 = -6 </span>
<span>(because -3 is a number in the integers, then it has an additive inverse, also in the integers, of +3). </span>
<span>--- </span>
<span>A rational number is simply a number that can be expressed as the "ratio" of two integers. For example, the number 4/7 is the ratio of "four to seven". </span>
<span>It can be written as an endless decimal expansion </span>
<span>0.571428571428571428....(forever), but that does not change its nature, because it CAN be written as a ratio, it is "rational". </span>
<span>Integers are rational numbers as well (because you can always write 3/1, the ratio of 3 to 1, to express the integer we call "3") </span>
<span>The additive inverse of a rational number, written as a ratio, is found by simply flipping the sign of the numerator (top) </span>
<span>The additive inverse of 4/7 is -4/7 </span>
<span>and if you ADD those two numbers together, you get zero (as per the definition of "additive inverse") </span>
<span>(4/7) + (-4/7) = 0/7 = 0 </span>
<span>If you need to "prove" it, you begin by the existence of additive inverses in the integers. </span>
<span>ALL integers each have an additive inverse. </span>
<span>For example, the additive inverse of 4 is -4 </span>
<span>Next, show that this (in the integers) can be applied to the rationals in this manner: </span>
<span>(4/7) + (-4/7) = ? </span>
<span>common denominator, therefore you can factor out the denominator: </span>
<span>(4 + -4)/7 = ? </span>
<span>Inside the bracket is the sum of an integer with its additive inverse, therefore the sum is zero </span>
<span>(0)/7 = 0/7 = 0 </span>
<span>Since this is true for ALL integers, then it must also be true for ALL rational numbers.</span>
