Let's solve the equation \(5(2x + 2) - 7x = 3x + 6\).

First, distribute \(5\) on the left side:

\[ 5 \cdot 2x + 5 \cdot 2 - 7x = 3x + 6 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ 10x + 10 - 7x = 3x + 6 \]

Now, combine like terms on the left side:

\[ (10x - 7x) + 10 = 3x + 6 \]

This results in:

\[ 3x + 10 = 3x + 6 \]

Next, we can subtract \(3x\) from both sides:

\[ 10 = 6 \]

This statement \(10 = 6\) is false. Therefore, there are no values of \(x\) that satisfy the equation.

Thus, the conclusion is that the equation has no solution.
