Question 642066
{{{3v+8=8+2v+v}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{3v+8=3v+8}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{3v=3v+8-8}}} Subtract {{{8}}} from both sides.



{{{3v-3v=8-8}}} Subtract {{{3v}}} from both sides.



{{{0v=8-8}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{0v=0}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{0=0}}} Simplify.



Since this equation is <font size=4><b>always</b></font> true for any v value, this means v can equal any number. 


So there are an infinite number of solutions.
