Answer:  There is one solution to the given equation.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the number of solutions to the following equation :

[tex]12x+6=5x~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)[/tex]

Since the given equation is linear in one variable x, so it will have only one solution.

The solution of equation (i) is given by

[tex]12x+6=5x\\\\\Rightarrow 12x-5x=-6\\\\\Rightarrow 7x=-6\\\\\Rightarrow x=-\dfrac{6}{7}.[/tex]

Thus, there is one solution to the given equation.
