Which equation, when solved, gives 8 for the value of x? A: 5/2x+7/2x=3/4x+14

B: 5/4x-9=3/2x-12

C: 5/4x-2=3/2x-4

D: 5/2x-7=3/4x+14

Step-by-step explanation:

C. 5x/4-2=3x/2-4

 5x/4 -2=6x/4-4

   +4       +4

5x/4+2=6x/4

-5x/4

2=x/4

*4

x=8

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
