Answer:

always true

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify, and if possible solve the equation to find out

remember, inverse operations

5x - 10 + 2x = 7 + 7x - 17

simplify both sides

7x - 10 = 7x - 10

this is an identity, no matter the value of x put in, the equation will be true,

hence the equation is always true
