    no solutions

    Step-by-step explanation:

    - (2x + 4) + x = 3x - 4x - 4

    Distribute

    -2x - 4 + x = 3x - 4x - 4

    Combine like terms

    -x + 4 = - x - 4

    Add x to each side

    -x+x+4 = - x+x-4

    4 = - 4

    This is never true so there are no solutions

    Infinite number of solutions

    Step-by-step explanation:

    - (2x + 4) + x = 3x - 4x - 4

    -2x - 4 + x = - x - 4

    -x - 4 = - x - 4

    -4 = - 4

    This equation remains true for all x,

    Hence infinitely many solutions
