Simplify each given equation and show your work. Tell whether it has one solution, an infinite number of solutions, or no solutions, and identify each equation as an identity, a contradiction, or neither. Explain your answers. (a) 6x + 2(2x – 3) = 24 + 9x (b) 25 – 4x = 3(5 – x) + 10 – x (c) 4(x + 2) = 2x + 7 + 2(x – 10)

infinite many solution when all numbers are solutions. when you solve the equation and if you get equal sides at the end like * 2=2 or x=x or 1=1 , 0=0* then the answer would be infinite many solution ~no solution: when you get false statement at the end like * 4=5 , 7=3* both sides aren't the same that means no number(value of x) would give you the true statement so there is no solution identity is an other word for *infinite many solution* and contradiction for no solution

try solving first question `6x + 2(2x – 3) = 24 + 9x` can you solve for x ?
