A. the solution is 5
B. The solution is 7
C. There equation has infinitely many solutions
D. There equation has no solution

P.S. There no equation to show you guys sorry.... :(

Answer 1

D because in no way can 5=7

Answer 2

The equation has no solution.

For example, the equation could be

3x + 5 = 3x + 7

Subtract 3x
from each side: 5 = 7

No value of ' x ' can make 5 equal to 7,
so the equation has no solution.
