Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property on the first side of the equation by multiplying 2 to all the terms in the parentheses

2x + 2 = 2x + 5

Subtract 2x from both sides

2 = 5

2 ≠ 5

This is not a true statement so there are no solutions

No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+1)=2x+5

Expand the parentheses:

2x+2=2x+5

Subtract 2x from both sides:
