You have the following equation:

3(2x - 5) + 4x = 5(2x + 3)

in order to solve for x, proceed as follow:

3(2x - 5) + 4x = 5(2x + 3) apply distributive property

6x - 15 + 4x = 10x + 3 simplify like terms

10x - 15 = 10x + 3 subtract 10x both sides

-15 = 3

the previous result is an incosistency, then, you ca conclude that the given equation does not have solution.

ZERO SOLUTIONS
