    b. 0

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We have been given an equation 5x-8 (x+5) = 6-3x. We are asked to find the number of solutions for our given equation.

    Let us solve our given equation. Using distributive property a (b+c) = ab+ac, we will get:

    5x-8*x-8*5=6-3x

    5x-8x-40=6-3x

    -3x-40=6-3x

    Adding 3x on both sides of our equation, we will get:

    -3x+3x-40=6-3x+3x

    -40=6

    Since both sides of our given equation are not equal, therefore, our given equation has no solution and option 'b' is the correct choice.

    theres no solution!
