Answer 1

Any value for `x` will make the equation true.

Explanation:

`7-3x=2x+7-5x`

`7-3x=-3x+7`

`7=7`

`0=0`

so no value of `x`

Answer 2

`"infinite solutions"`

Explanation:

`"note that the right side of the equation simplifies to"`

`7-5x+2x=7-3x`

`rArr7-3x=7-3x`

`"both sides of the equation are equal thus they are true"`
`"for all values of x"`

`rArr"infinite solutions"`
