Question
$$7+x = 5+x$$
Answer
This equation has no solution.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} 7+x &= 5+x&& \text{move the $ \color{blue}{ x } $ to the left side and $ \color{blue}{ 7 }$ to the right} \\[1 em]x-x &= 5-7&& \text{simplify left and right hand side} \\[1 em]x-x &= -2&& \\[1 em]0 &= -2&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ 0 = -2 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
