Answer: One solution since it’s an equation but not an inequality.

X=0 is the only possible answer

Explanation:

Well since it’s an equation there’s gonna be only one solution, if it’s an inequality [<,>] then there might be more then 1 solution.

Answer:

One Solution.

Explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

7(2 + 5x) = 3x + 14

Step 2: Solve for x

Distribute 7: 14 + 35x = 3x + 14

Subtract 3x on both sides: 14 + 32x = 14

Subtract 14 on both sides: 32x = 0

Divide both sides by 32: x = 0

We have 1 solution.
