Answer:

no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x-2)=5x-7

Distribute

5x - 10 = 5x-7

Subtract 5x from each side

-10 = -7

This is never true so there are no solutions

First solve the equation.

Start by distributing the 5 through the parenthses on the left side.

On the left we get 5x - 10 and on the right we have 5x - 7.

So we have the equation 5x - 10 = 5x - 7.

Now subtract 5x from both sides to get -10 = -7.

Since -10 = -7 is a false statement, this equation has no solution.
