    Answer: b the equation has one solution and the solution is 0

    Step-by-step explanation:

    first subtract 4x from both sides you should end up with something like this after you subtract 4x from both sides

    (3 (2+x) + 4x-4x=6+4x-4x)

    3 (2+x) = 6

    then divide both sides by three you then sould have something like this after you divide both sides by three

    (3 (2+x) / 3=6/3)

    2+x=2

    then subtract 2 from both sides you shoould end up with the answer of

    (2+x-2=2-2)

    x=0
