7x + 5 - 3x - 7 = 10 4x-2=10 4x=10+2 4x=12 X=12:4 X = 3

Pinata · Answer 2

You answer is 3 and here's why ...

7x + 5 - 3x - 7 = 10

First you must collect like terms

And that gives us

4x - 2 = 10

Next you must simplify by removing additives

4x - 2 + 2 = 10 + 2

4x = 12

Now you must divide

4x/4 = 12/4

x = 3
