2(x + 2) + 2 = 2(x + 3) + 1
2x + 4 + 2 = 2x + 6 + 1
2x + 6 = 2x + 7 - NO SOLUTION
(subtract 2x from both sides, then 6 = 7 FALSE)

2x + 3(x + 5) = 5(x – 3)
2x + 3x + 15 = 5x - 15
5x + 15 = 5x - 15 - NO SOLUTION

4(x + 3) = x + 12
4x + 12 = x + 12 - ONE SOLUTION

4 – (2x + 5) = (–4x – 2)
4 - 2x - 5 = -4x - 2
-2x - 1 = -4x - 2 - ONE SOLUTION

5(x + 4) – x = 4(x + 5) – 1
5x + 20 - x = 4x + 20 - 1
4x + 20 = 4x + 19 - NO SOLUTION
