.
The equation has one solution: x equals negative 20 .
The equation has infinite solutions.
To solve for x, first distribute the 6 on the left side of the equation:
12x + 24 - 24 = 12x
12x = 12x
Subtract 12x from both sides:
12x - 12x = 0
0 = 0
Since the equation simplifies to 0 = 0, this means that the equation has infinite solutions.
