Question

Solution 2(x + 1) = 2x + 2.

Answer 1

Answer:

Infinity

Step-by-step explanation:

It is equal to nothing.

2x+2=2x+2

-2x     -2x    

2=0x+2

-2      -2

0=0

Answer 2

Answer:

( − ∞ , ∞ )

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the 2 in 2 (x+1)

2 ⋅ x = 2 x

2 ⋅ 1 = 2

Combine:

2 x + 2

Equation is now:

2 x + 2 = 2 x + 2

Subtract 2 from both sides of the equation:

2 x = 2 x

Divide both sides by 2:

x=x

Both sides of the equation are the same:

x = x

Any real number or:

( − ∞ , ∞ )
