What kind of equation is –6x + 14 = –2(3x – 7)? an equation with no solution, an equation whose solution is an interger, an equation whose solution is not an interger, an identity

I think its an identity just wanted to make sure

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Notice how –2(3x – 7) distributes to -6x + 14 So the left side and the right side are the same expression

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

So you are 100% correct, it's an identity
