Lin is looking at the equation \(2x-32+4(3x-2462) = 14x\).
She said, “I can tell right away that there are no solutions, because on the left side, you will have \(2x+12x\) and a bunch of constants, but you have just \(14x\) on the right side.”
Do you agree with Lin? Explain your reasoning.
Problem 2
Han is looking at the equation \(6x-4+2(5x+2)=16x\).
He says, “I can tell right away there are no solutions, because on the left side, you will have \(6x+10x\) and a bunch of constants, but you have just \(16x\) on the right side.”
Do you agree with Han? Explain your reasoning.
Problem 3
Decide whether each equation is true for all, one, or no values of \(x\).
The points \((\text-2,0)\) and \((0,\text-6)\) are each on the graph of a linear equation. Is \((2,6)\) also on the graph of this linear equation? Explain your reasoning.
