10(x+1/2)=3x+5+7x

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
10(x+1/2)=3x+5+7x

Simplifying:
10*(x + 0.5)=3x+5+7x

Reorder the terms in parentheses
+(+10x+5)=3x+5+7x

Remove unnecessary parentheses
+10x+5=+3x+5+7x

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.
+10x-3x-7x=+5-5

We simplify left and right side of the equation.
0x=0

0=0

This equation is an identity, so all real numbers are solutions.

Answer:

All real numbers are solutions

Explanation:

10(x + 1/2) = 3x + 5 + 7x

~Distribute left side

10x + 5 = 3x + 5 + 7x

~Combine like terms

10x + 5 = 10x + 5

~Subtract 5 to both sides

10x = 10x

~Divide 10 to both sides

x = x

~Subtract x to both sides

0 = 0

Best of Luck!
