How many solutions does the equation y + 12 = y + 10 + 2 have?

Y + 12 = y + 10 + 2

y + 12 = y + 12

y - y = 12 - 12

0 = 0

When solving an equation and you see the format 0 = 0, know that there are infinitely many solutions.

When you plug in any number at all for y, it would satisfy the original equation.

So the solutions are infinitely many.

There are infinite solutions.
Think about it. The equation says essentially:
12 + any number = 12 + any number.
y + 12 = y + 10 + 2
y + 12 = y + 12
   y - y = 12 - 12
      0 = 12 - 12
      0 = 0

When it comes to deductive reasoning, it is used to reach a logical solution. You start out with the general statement, or hypothesis, and examine all the possibilities so you can reach the final conclusion.

Inductive reasoning is completely opposite - you focus on specific observations, and then make broad generalizations.
