Hey there!!

Given:

... (12x/2)-4=2(3x-2)

The properties we will need to use:

  • The distributive property
  • Addition property of equality
  • Subtraction property of equality
  • Multiplication property of equality

Now, using the distribution property of :

... Now, after using the distributive property:

... (12x/2) - 4 = 6x - 4

...Now, using the addition property of equality:

... Adding 4 on both sides:

... 12x/2=6x-4+4

... 12x/2=6x

... Now, using the multiplication property of equality:

... Multiplying 2 on both sides:

... 12x=12x

Hence, this equation has infinite solutions.

Hope my answer helps!
