Answer:

The correct option is b) no solution.

Explanation:

Consider the provided equation,


x + 2 = x + 4

We need to find the solution of the above equation.

Subtract x from both the sides as shown.


x-x+2=x-x+4


2=4

Which is false.

As 2 is not equal to 4.

Hence, the provided equation has no solution.

Thus, the correct option is b) no solution.
