2(x + 6) = 2x + 6 how to solve?

1.	2(x + 6) = 2x + 6 how to solve?
Answer» GIVEN equation:- 2(x+6) = 2x + 6 Solution:- 2(x+6) = 2x +6 ⟹ 2x + 12 = 2x +6 Subtracting 12 from both sides: 2x + 12 - 12 = 2x + 6 - 12 ⟹2x = 2x - 6 Simplify: 2x = 2x -6 ⟹2x - 2x = -6 ⟹0 = -6 Therefore, The INPUT is a contradiction: it has no SOLUTIONS

Answer»

GIVEN equation:-

2(x+6) = 2x + 6

Solution:-

2(x+6) = 2x +6

⟹ 2x + 12 = 2x +6

Subtracting 12 from both sides:

2x + 12 - 12 = 2x + 6 - 12

⟹2x = 2x - 6

Simplify:

2x = 2x -6

⟹2x - 2x = -6

⟹0 = -6

Therefore,

The INPUT is a contradiction: it has no SOLUTIONS
