13.EE.7 solve linear
equations in one
variable
14.EE.7a give examples
of linear equations in
one variable with one
solution, infinitely
many solutions, or no
solutions; show which
of these possibilities is
the case by
successively
transforming the given
equation into simpler
forms, until an
equation in the form x
= a, a = a, or a = b
results (where a and b
are different numbers))
