Verified answer

4x - 12 = 1/4(16x - 48)

16x - 48 = 16x - 48

Answer: B. identity—the number of solutions are infinite and therefore there is no definite solution to this problem.

C or B identical sides

4x - 12 = 1/4(16x-48)

16x - 48 = 16x - 48

4x-12 = 1/4 (16x-48)

becomes

4x-12 = 4x-12

So, we subtract 4x from both sides gives us:

-12 = -12

and we add 12 to both sides and get

0=0

or

Unlimited solutions. Theoretically, x can be Anything!! That means the answer is B - Identity.

4x - 12 = 1/4(16x - 48)

4x - 12 = (16x - 48)/4

4x - 12 = 16x/4 - 48/4

4x - 12 = 4x - 12

(identity)

(answer B)

1. Expand the whole equation.

4x-12 = 4x-12

move all the x to the left hand side and the numbers to right hand side.

4x-4x=12-12

solve it

0=0

Since it is 0 that means that is totally identity.

Hope it helps.:)

16x - 48 = 16x - 48

OPTION B

X can take any value therefore B is the answer.

darling its identity..

identity takes all number from 0 to -infinity to infinity

x can take any value so answer is

B

multiply everything by four it will be easier
