Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Equation

2x + 3 + 4x = 6x + 3

Step 2: Solve for x

1. Combine like terms:                   6x + 3 = 6x + 3
2. Subtract 3 on both sides:           6x = 6x
3. Divide 6 on both sides:              x = x

Here we see that x does indeed equal to x.

∴ x = infinite amount of solutions.

Answer 2

2x + 3 + 4x = 6x + 3

Combine the like terms on the left side

2x + 4x = 6x

6x + 3= 6x + 3

Subtract 3 from each side

6x = 6x

Divide each side by 6

x = x

No matter what x is, they are the same. It has infinite solutions.
