Consider x+4=x+8. What values could be substituted for x to make this a true number sentence?

This looks unusual but let's try it.

x+4=x+8

Let's move the x vales to the left and numbers to the right.

x-x=8-4

0=-4

Hm. This doesn't work, does it?

This equation has no solution. If you believe you typed it wrong, correct it in the comment seciton.
