Answer:

Hai is incorrect, there is no solution to this equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Expand.

3x-4=2x+6+x3x−4=2x+6+x

2.) Simplify  2x+6+x2x+6+x  to  3x+63x+6.

3x-4=3x+63x−4=3x+6

3.) Cancel 3x3x on both sides.

-4=6−4=6

4.) Since -4=6−4=6 is false, there is no solution.

Therefore, this equation has no solution
