First, distribute the 5 and 6 to simplify the equation:
10x + 10 - 7x = 3x + 6
Combine like terms:
3x + 10 = 3x + 6
Subtract 3x from both sides:
10 = 6
Since this equation is a contradiction (10 does not equal 6), there is no solution.
Solve for x to determine if the equation has one, none, or infinite solutions.
5(2x+2)−7x=3x+6(1 point)
