Answer:

  yes, 1 solution

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of x are different on each side of the equal sign, so this is a linear equation in x. It has one solution.

_____

If the x-coefficients were the same, the equation would have no solutions if the constants were different, and infinite solutions if the constants were the same. The x-coefficients are not the same, so there is exactly one solution.
