Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step:

7x+5=7x−3

Step 1: Subtract 7x from both sides.

7x+5−7x=7x−3−7x

5=−3

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides.

5−5=−3−5

0=−8

Answer: no solutions

7x + 5 = 7x - 3

5 = -3 [ subtract 7x from both sides ]

Since we end up with 5 = -3, a clearly false equation, we conclude that the original equation has no solutions.

i hope this helps! :D
