How many solutions does 5x - 1 = 10x - 4 - 5x + 3 have?

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

5x + - 1 = 10x + - 4 + - 5x + 3

Reorder the terms:

-1 + 5x = 10x + - 4 + - 5x + 3

Reorder the terms:

-1 + 5x = - 4 + 3 + 10x + - 5x

Combine like terms: - 4 + 3 = - 1

-1 + 5x = - 1 + 10x + - 5x

Combine like terms: 10x + - 5x = 5x

-1 + 5x = - 1 + 5x

Add '1' to each side of the equation.

-1 + 1 + 5x = - 1 + 1 + 5x

Combine like terms: - 1 + 1 = 0

0 + 5x = - 1 + 1 + 5x

5x = - 1 + 1 + 5x

Combine like terms: - 1 + 1 = 0

5x = 0 + 5x

5x = 5x

Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.

5x + - 5x = 5x + - 5x

Combine like terms: 5x + - 5x = 0

0 = 5x + - 5x

Combine like terms: 5x + - 5x = 0

0 = 0

Solving

0 = 0
