To determine the value of \( h \) for which the equation \(-8 (x + 3) = h ( -x + 10)\) has zero solutions, we can analyze the equation step by step.
1. **Distribute the terms**:
- Left side: \(-8 (x + 3) = -8x - 24\)
- Right side: \(h ( -x + 10) = -hx + 10h\)
2. **Rewrite the equation**:
\[
-8x - 24 = -hx + 10h
\]
3. **Rearranging**:
Rearranging the equation gives:
\[
-8x + hx = 10h + 24
\]
\[
(h - 8)x = 10h + 24
\]
For the equation to have zero solutions, we want the coefficient of \(x\) to be zero. This means:
- The term \((h - 8)\) should equal zero:
\[
h - 8 = 0 \implies h = 8
\]
At the same time, the constant term on the right-hand side must not equal zero:
- The equation then is:
\[
10h + 24 \neq 0
\]
Substituting \(h = 8\):
\[
10(8) + 24 = 80 + 24 = 104 \neq 0
\]
Thus, the complete sentence would be:
This equation will have zero solutions when \(h = 8\) because you get zero solutions when you have one number of \(x\) on either side of the equation and a non-zero equation for the constants.
1. **Distribute the terms**:
- Left side: \(-8 (x + 3) = -8x - 24\)
- Right side: \(h ( -x + 10) = -hx + 10h\)
2. **Rewrite the equation**:
\[
-8x - 24 = -hx + 10h
\]
3. **Rearranging**:
Rearranging the equation gives:
\[
-8x + hx = 10h + 24
\]
\[
(h - 8)x = 10h + 24
\]
For the equation to have zero solutions, we want the coefficient of \(x\) to be zero. This means:
- The term \((h - 8)\) should equal zero:
\[
h - 8 = 0 \implies h = 8
\]
At the same time, the constant term on the right-hand side must not equal zero:
- The equation then is:
\[
10h + 24 \neq 0
\]
Substituting \(h = 8\):
\[
10(8) + 24 = 80 + 24 = 104 \neq 0
\]
Thus, the complete sentence would be:
This equation will have zero solutions when \(h = 8\) because you get zero solutions when you have one number of \(x\) on either side of the equation and a non-zero equation for the constants.

To determine the value of \( h \) for which the equation \( 12x - 12 = h (4x + 8) \) has zero solutions, we can analyze the equation step by step.
1. **Distribute the terms**:
- Right side: \( h(4x + 8) = 4hx + 8h \)
2. **Rewrite the equation**:
\[
12x - 12 = 4hx + 8h
\]
3. **Rearranging**:
Rearranging the equation gives:
\[
12x - 4hx = 8h + 12
\]
\[
(12 - 4h)x = 8h + 12
\]
For the equation to have zero solutions, we want the coefficient of \( x \) to be zero. This means:
- The term \( (12 - 4h) \) should equal zero:
\[
12 - 4h = 0 \implies 4h = 12 \implies h = 3
\]
At the same time, the constant term on the right-hand side must not equal zero:
- The equation then is:
\[
8h + 12 \neq 0
\]
Substituting \( h = 3 \):
\[
8(3) + 12 = 24 + 12 = 36 \neq 0
\]
Thus, the complete sentence would be:
This equation will have zero solutions when \(h = 3\) because you get zero solutions when you have **the same** number of \(x\)'s on either side of the equation and **different constants**.
1. **Distribute the terms**:
- Right side: \( h(4x + 8) = 4hx + 8h \)
2. **Rewrite the equation**:
\[
12x - 12 = 4hx + 8h
\]
3. **Rearranging**:
Rearranging the equation gives:
\[
12x - 4hx = 8h + 12
\]
\[
(12 - 4h)x = 8h + 12
\]
For the equation to have zero solutions, we want the coefficient of \( x \) to be zero. This means:
- The term \( (12 - 4h) \) should equal zero:
\[
12 - 4h = 0 \implies 4h = 12 \implies h = 3
\]
At the same time, the constant term on the right-hand side must not equal zero:
- The equation then is:
\[
8h + 12 \neq 0
\]
Substituting \( h = 3 \):
\[
8(3) + 12 = 24 + 12 = 36 \neq 0
\]
Thus, the complete sentence would be:
This equation will have zero solutions when \(h = 3\) because you get zero solutions when you have **the same** number of \(x\)'s on either side of the equation and **different constants**.

To determine the value of \( h \) for which the equation \( h(2x + 6) = 14(x + 3) \) has zero solutions, let's analyze the equation step by step.
1. **Distribute the terms**:
- Right side: \( 14(x + 3) = 14x + 42 \)
2. **Rewrite the equation**:
\[
h(2x + 6) = 14x + 42
\]
3. **Rearranging**:
This can be written as:
\[
2hx + 6h = 14x + 42
\]
4. **Group the terms**:
Rearranging gives:
\[
2hx - 14x = 42 - 6h
\]
\[
(2h - 14)x = 42 - 6h
\]
For the equation to have zero solutions, we want the coefficient of \( x \) to be zero, which means:
- The term \( (2h - 14) \) should equal zero:
\[
2h - 14 = 0 \implies 2h = 14 \implies h = 7
\]
At the same time, the constant term on the right-hand side must not equal zero:
- The equation then is:
\[
42 - 6h \neq 0
\]
Substituting \( h = 7 \):
\[
42 - 6(7) = 42 - 42 = 0
\]
This means that \( h = 7 \) does not satisfy the conditions for zero solutions since it leads to both sides having \( x \) terms cancelled out and the constants becoming equal (which gives infinite solutions instead). Thus, there is no \( h \) where this condition holds true.
However, we can choose \( h \) such that the equation becomes undefined.
### Final Conclusion:
Therefore, since there is no value of \( h \) that gives exactly zero solutions while satisfying different constant conditions, we can clarify that:
This equation will **not** have solutions when \( h = 7 \) because you get zero solutions when you have **the same** number of \( x \)'s on either side of the equation and **the same constant**. In this case, the constants become equal to each other when \( h = 7 \).
If the equation is meant to have no solutions instead of infinite solutions, we can consider values where:
1. \( 2h - 14 \neq 0 \),
2. and \( 42 - 6h = 0\) (which leads to the above condition).
