Answer: that the variable can be any number.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have a linear equation and we end with a relation of the way:

x = x

an example can be if we have:

2*x + 4 = 2 * (x + 2)

if you solve that, you will end with a relationship x = x

this means that any value of x will made that equality true.

so x can be any number.
