This equation will have zero solutions when \( h = 8 \) because you get zero solutions when you have the same number of \( x \)'s on either side of the equation and the constant terms are not equal.

To illustrate, if \( h = 8 \), the equation \( 8x - 1 = 8x + 6 \) simplifies to \( -1 = 6 \), which is a contradiction and results in no solutions.
