First you condense the right side (4x+8=4x-13)

We know this problem has no solution because if you subtract 4x from each side you will get 8=-13 and that is impossible.

Therefore there are no solutions

4x+8=2x+7+2x-20
4x+8=4x-13
4x+8-4x=4x-13-4x
8=-13

8 is not equal to -13
Therefore, there is no solution.

4(2x + 3) = 2(3x - 4)
8x + 12 = 6x - 8
8x - 6x = -8 - 12
2x = - 20
x = -20/2
x = -10if u get a variable equal to a number, then there is 1 solution

if u would have ended up with 0 = 0 or 5 = 5...or something that is equal, then there would be infinite solutions.
if u would have ended up with 2 = 3, or 5 = 7...or something unequal, then there would have been no solution.
