5x + 1 = 5x + n

n - any real number except 1

Examples:

n = 2

5x + 1 = 5x + 2 subtract 5x from both sides

1 = 2 FALSE -> NO SOLUTION

n = 0

5x + 1 = 5x + 0 subtract 5x from both sdies

1 = 0 FALSE -> NO SOLUTION

n = -4

5x + 1 = 5x + (-4) subtract 5x from both sides

1 = -4 FALSE -> NO SOLUTION
