Assuming you haven't missed an 'x' from the equation, then false. X can be any real number and it will still be true that 5 = 5. In fact, we needn't restrict ourselves to the reals.

I think what you are trying to say is does x=5 have any other solutions when you substitute the 5 for the x? like x=5 is 5=5. So that means x=5 that is an equation that defines the value for x so it is a solution. Is there any other way to say that? sure x^2-25=0 or x^2-20=5 all of those will bring you to x=5. if you are asking if you can substitute 5 for the x then yes because it's still a true statement. 5 =5 as much as x=x. It's logically true. If this is not what you are talking about then I agree with everyone else that this is a stupid question. Or maybe I'm the idiot for actually trying to answer this.

False. There's no x in the equation.

false as the =n holds true for all values of x

Do you see a variable called 'x' in that equation? Why not say the variable g? Or Φ?
It's beyond false....... It's dumb.

assuming that you do not make any mistakes in your workings, it means that there is infinitely many solutions for x
