Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Equation

8(2x + 5) = 16x + 40

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Distribute 8:                                  16x + 40 = 16x + 40
  2. Subtract 40 on both sides:          16x = 16x
  3. Divide 16 on both sides:               x = x

Here we see that x does indeed equal x.

∴ x has an infinite amount of solutions.
