For each equation, decide if it is always true or never true.

  • x-13=x+1
  • x+\frac{1}{2}=x-\frac{1}{2}
  • 2(x+3)=5x+6-3x
  • x-3=2x-3-x
  • 3(x-5)=2(x-5)+x
  • True
  • Never True

Mai says that the equation 2x+2=x+1 has no solution because the left hand side is double the right hand side.
Do you agree with Mai? Explain why on your paper!!

Here is an equation that is true for all values of x:5(x+2)=5x+10 . Elena saw this equation and said she can tell 20(x+2)+31=4(5x+10)+31 is also true for any value of x. How can she tell?
Explain your reasoning.
