Let's solve this equation step by step.

5(x-8) + 10 = 5(x+2)

First, distribute the 5 on both terms inside the parentheses:

5x - 40 + 10 = 5x + 10

Now simplify the equation:

5x - 30 = 5x + 10

Then, subtract 5x from both sides of the equation to get:

-30 = 10

Since this leads to an untrue statement, there is no solution to the original equation.
