Question 115819: tell whether this is always sometimes or never true

You can put this solution on YOUR website! the sum of two consecutive even numbers is equal two the sum of two consecutive odd numbers.
:
I think never true:
Let x = an odd number
the sum of two consecutive odd numbers can be written:
2x + 2
;
Then let (x+1) = an even number
the sum of two consecutive even numbers would be:
2(x+1) + 2
2x + 2 + 2
2x + 4
:
There is no value for x that would make this true
