Does a multi-step equation always, sometimes, or never have a solution? explain your reasoning.

Only sometimes.

4x + 1 = 2x+3 has a solution.

4x + 1 = 4(x+1) has infinitely many solutions.

(3*9) -28 = 45^ 0 has no solutions.

Therefore, a multi-step equation sometimes has a solution.

option 1

data plot with   3 dots over 33, 1 dot over 34, 2 dots over 35, no dot over 36, 1 dot over 37, 2 dots over 38, 4 dots over 39, and 2 dot over 40.

hello :

70y^8 + 30y^6 = 2 ( 35 y^8 + 15y^6)

the lenght is : 35 y^8

the width is : 15y^6
