-7x - 12 = x + 12
-8x - 12 = 12
-8x = 24
x = -3
Since -3 is a valid solution, we need to change the equation in order to have no solution.
-8x - 12 = 12
-8x = 24
x = -3

Apologies for the error. Here is the correct way to create an equation with no solution:
−7x−12 = x+12
−7x−12 = x+12
−7x−x = 12+12
−8x = 24
Dividing by -8 on both sides:
x = -3
Since x = -3 is a valid solution, this equation does not have no solution. Let's try again:
To create an equation with no solution, we can try:
−7x−12 = x+13
This equation will have no solution because when we solve it, we get x = -1. This is a contradiction, so the equation has no solution.
−7x−12 = x+12
−7x−12 = x+12
−7x−x = 12+12
−8x = 24
Dividing by -8 on both sides:
x = -3
