Solving an equation with a variable on both sides infinite solutions

The video tutorial explains how to solve an equation by simplifying it and determining the type of solutions it may have. The instructor discusses the possibilities of having infinite, no, or one solution. By using the distributive property and verifying with examples, it is shown that the equation has infinite solutions. The tutorial concludes with a summary of the findings.
