    3 (3x - 8) + 4x = - 2 (12 - 7x) - x

    9x - 24 + 4x = - 24 + 14x - x distributed 3 on the left and - 2 on the right

    - 24 + 13x = - 24 + 13x added like terms on the left and the right

    -13x - 13x

    -24 = - 24

    TRUE

    A true statement means infinitely many solutions (aka All Real Numbers)
