Question

chapter 1: solving equations with variables on both sides > section
what error was made in solving the equation?
image: -4(2n - 3) = 12 - 8n; -8n + 12 = 12 - 8n; -8n = -8n; 0 = 0; the solution is n = 0.
the -4 was not distributed properly
30
when 0 = 0 the solution is not n = 0.
the 12 should have been added to both sides
the 8n should have been added to both sides.
select the correct solution.

Explanation:

Answer:

When \( 0 = 0 \) the solution is not \( n = 0 \).
(For the correct solution: The equation simplifies to \( 0 = 0 \), which means all real numbers are solutions, or the equation is an identity.)
