The given expression is
[tex]-2(x+3)=-2(x+1)-4[/tex]First, we use the distributive property to get rid of the parenthesis.
[tex]-2x-6=-2x-2-4[/tex]Now, we sum 2x on each side
[tex]\begin{gathered} -2x-6+2x=-2x-6+2x \\ -6=-6 \end{gathered}[/tex]As you can observe, the variables were eliminated and the resulting equation is true. This means the equation has infinite solutions.
