Question

Complete the sentence based on the equation shown below.
5x + 8 = 5x + h

This equation will have zero solutions when h = ? because you get zero solutions when you have ? number of x's on either side of the equation and ?
Answer
-1/2x - 3 = hx - 8

This equation will have one solution when h = ? because you get one solution when you have ? (the same or different) number of x's on either side of the equation and ? (the same constant, different constants, or constants can be the same or different)
Answer
no that is not right

This equation will have zero solutions when h = any nonzero number, because you get zero solutions when you have the same number of x's on either side of the equation and the constant term does not affect the solution.

This equation will have one solution when h = -1/2, because you get one solution when you have the same number of x's on either side of the equation and the constants are different.

Apologies for the incorrect response. Let's analyze the equation again.

-1/2x - 3 = hx - 8

This equation will have one solution when h = -1/2 because you get one solution when you have the same number of x's on either side of the equation, and the constants are different. In this case, both sides of the equation have -1/2x terms, and the constants are -3 and -8, respectively.
