No. Just observe the Moon for a few days!Due to the Moon's orbit around the Earth, every day it will rise approximately 50 minutes later than the day before. For example, at full moon, it will rise more or less at sunset; at new moon, it will rise and set together with the Sun.

The sun is ahead of the moon in the sky during waxing phases what time would a 10 old moon set if the sun set at 7pm?

The Moon sets about 50 minutes later each day. At the "new moon", the Moon and Sun are very close together in the sky, and rise and set together. 10 days later, the Moon rises (and sets) about 8 hours after the Sun does. So the Moon 10 days after the new would be waxing gibbous, and would set around 3 AM.
