D.
all real numbers

Answer 1

–2(6 – 20n) = 20(2n – 3)
expanding...
-12 + 40n = 40n - 60
recollecting terms
60 - 12 = 40n - 40n
\[48 \neq 0\]
So that means no solution.

Answer 2

no solution

Answer 3

Simplifying
-2(6 + -20n) = 20(2n + -3)
(6 * -2 + -20n * -2) = 20(2n + -3)
(-12 + 40n) = 20(2n + -3)

Reorder the terms:
-12 + 40n = 20(-3 + 2n)
-12 + 40n = (-3 * 20 + 2n * 20)
-12 + 40n = (-60 + 40n)

Add '-40n' to each side of the equation.
-12 + 40n + -40n = -60 + 40n + -40n

Combine like terms: 40n + -40n = 0
-12 + 0 = -60 + 40n + -40n
-12 = -60 + 40n + -40n

Combine like terms: 40n + -40n = 0
-12 = -60 + 0
-12 = -60

Solving
-12 = -60
