1) subtract 11 from both sides.
-8x +9x = x+14
2) -8x +9x is 'x'
3) x=x+14 which is impossible.
My answer would be "D".

No solution
-8x+11+9x=x+25
x+11=x+25
x-x+11=x+25_x
0x+11-11=25-11
0x=14
14/0= no solution

D) No solution
When you simplify it, you get down to:
-14 = 0, which is obviously an incorrect solution. No value of X will result in a balanced equation

None of the above. Simplify the left side to give:
x + 11 = x + 25
There are two numbers for which this is true. One is infinity (since infinity plus anything is infinity). the other is minus infinity (because minus infinite plus anything finite equals minus infinity). Hence the answer is:
x = infinity or -infinity
