solve the following equation for ( x ). express your answer in the simplest form.
( -2x + 4 = -2x + 5 )

answer attempt 1 out of 2
the equation has one solution and it is ( x = square ).

Explanation:

Step1: Add $2x$ to both sides

$-2x + 4 + 2x = -2x + 5 + 2x$
$4 = 5$

Step2: Analyze the resulting statement

The equation $4=5$ is a false statement with no variables left, meaning there is no value of $x$ that can satisfy the original equation.

Answer:

The equation has no solution.
