Sam and Jody solved the equation below. Sam said got n=n. Jody got -6 = -6. Sam said that one of them must be wrong because you cannot get different solutions for the same equation. Is Sam right or is Jody? Is is possible for them to both be right? If so, explain how. 4n - 6 = 2(2n - 3)
What is they are both correct. This problem has infinitely many solutions. 4n - 6 = 2(2n - 3) is the same as 4n - 6 = 4n - 6 . Sam solved by getting the constant numbers on the same side and adding 6 to both sides. Then he divided by 4 to get n by itself. Jody began by moving the variables to one side and subtracting 4n from both sides. When you get a number or variable that equals itself, that means that the equation will be true no matter what value is substituted for the variable.
