How many solutions does this equation have?

kozerog [31]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer: infinite solutions

Discussion: I did a double take on this one but the left hand is

a + 3 + 2a = 3a +3

and the right hand side is

-1 + 3a + 4 = 3a + (4-1) = 3a + 3

The left and right sides of the equation are identical for all "a", i.e. for infinitely many "a" values.

Regards, MrB.
