1. **State the problem:** We need to determine which of the given equations have exactly one solution.
2. **Recall:** An equation has one solution if it simplifies to a linear equation with a unique value for $x$.
3. **Analyze each equation:**
**A.** $2x + 2x + 2 = 4x + 2$
Simplify left side: $4x + 2 = 4x + 2$
Subtract $4x + 2$ from both sides: $0 = 0$
This means infinitely many solutions, not one.
**B.** $\frac{3}{4}(4x - 8) = 18$
Distribute: $3x - 6 = 18$
Add 6: $3x = 24$
Divide by 3: $x = 8$
One unique solution.
**C.** $x + x - (x + x) = 2x - x + 2$
Simplify left: $2x - 2x = 0$
Simplify right: $x + 2$
Equation: $0 = x + 2$
Solve: $x = -2$
One unique solution.
**D.** $\frac{1}{2}x = x + \frac{1}{2}$
Bring all terms to one side: $\frac{1}{2}x - x = \frac{1}{2}$
Simplify: $-\frac{1}{2}x = \frac{1}{2}$
Multiply both sides by $-2$: $x = -1$
One unique solution.
**E.** $-3(-x - 2) = 3(x - 2)$
Distribute left: $3x + 6 = 3x - 6$
Subtract $3x$: $6 = -6$
False statement, no solution.
4. **Conclusion:** Equations B, C, and D have exactly one solution.
**Final answer:** B, C, D
