Step-by-step explanation:

The equation will have infinite solutions when the left side and right side simplify to the same expression. This is the case for the first and last expressions listed.

  2(x -5) = 2(x -5) . . . . expressions are already identical

  x +2(x -5) = 3(x -2) -4  ⇒  3x -10 = 3x -10 . . . the same simplified expression

__

The equation will have no solutions when the x-coefficients are the same, but there are different added constants.

  5(x +4) = 5(x -6)  ⇒  x +4 = x -6  . . .  not true for any x

  4(x -2) = 4(x +2)  ⇒  x -2 = x +2  . . .  not true for any x

__

The equation will have one solution when coefficients of x are different.

  5(x +4) = 3(x -6)  ⇒  2x = -38  ⇒ x = -19
