The given equation can be categorized to have an infinite number of solutions, since any value for f makes the numerical equation true.
Solution:
-2f + 2f = 0
If we solve for the value of, we can clearly see that both sides are equal to each other, meaning any solution will make the equation true
2f = 2f
f = 1
2(1) = 2(1)
2 = 2
f = 2
2(2) = 2(2)
4 = 4
This can be also supported by solving the equation directly.
-2f + 2f = 0
-2f and 2f has the same variable f and subtracting them would result to 0.
