      The correct choice is: No values of x make the equation true.

      Explanation: When Paloma simplified the equation and arrived at 2 = 0, it indicates a contradiction. This means there is no value of x that can satisfy the original equation, as 2 can never equal 0. Therefore, the equation has no solution. Great job in analyzing the steps!
