Determine whether the equation

-4 (x-3) + 7x = 3(x+4)

is true for all values of x (and hence an identity) or if it is true for only some values of x (and hence a conditional equation.)

 

-4 (x-3) + 7x Show work. Simplify the left hand side and determine if it is identical to the right hand side
