Answer:

  • A) It has infinitely many solutions

Explanation:

Given equation

  • 2x - 2x - 7 = - 7

Variables cancel and the equation simplifies as

  • - 7 = - 7
  • 0 = 0

Since we got both sides equal, it doesn't change with any value of x.

It means the equation has infinitely many solutions.
