Find a value for x that provides a counterexample for this conjecture.
For all real numbers x, 4x-8/3x-6 = 4/3.
-----
Determine for what values of x the equation is true::
Solve::
[4(x-2)]/[3(x-2)] = 4/3
-----
Your equation is true for every possible value of "x" except x = 2
===================
x = 2 is the counterexample.
