Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 7 = 2(x + 5)

2 * x = 2x

2 * 5 = 10

2x + 7 = 2x + 10

Therefore, this statement has no solution

Hey!

-------------------------------------------------

Answer:

False

-------------------------------------------------

Solution:

2x + 7 = 2(x + 5)

2x + 7 = 2x + 10

2x - 2x + 7 = 2x - 2x + 10

7 = 10

-------------------------------------------------

Step-by-step explanation:

By solving the equation we get 7 = 10. This shows that the equation is never true. In other words it has no solutions.
