Answer 1

C
There is no solution

Answer 2

Answer:

C. There is no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, multiply what in the parentheses by what's outside of them.

$2(x - 3) = 2x + 5 ↴$

$2x - 6 = 2x + 5$

Then seperate variables from nonvariables. After subtracting $2x$ from the right and left side, the equation becomes this:

$- 6 = 5$

This equation has no solutions because this is an inequality.
