Sagot :

Okay, here we have this:

Considering the provided equation, we are going to identify if is an identity, consistent or neither, so we obtain the following:

We will first solve the equation:

[tex]\begin{gathered} -3\mleft(x+2\mright)=6 \\ x+2=-2 \\ x=-2-2 \\ x=-4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

This is an equation and not an identity, because the expression to the left of equals cannot be arranged to give the equation to the right.

Considering that the equation had at least one solution then it means that it is consistent.
