You can put this solution on YOUR website!
finding the value of x in:
2(x+1)=2x+3
---
2x+2 = 2x+3
---
Subtract 2x from both sides to get:
2 = 3
---
That is a congtradiction which resulted
because we assumed the "x" in the equation
had one value.
---
But there is no such one value for "x".
Conclusion:
The equation has no solution.
