Since 5x contains the variable to solve for move it to the left-hand side of the equation by subtracting 5x from both sides.
3x+7-5x=-21
Add 3x and - 5x to get - 2x.
-2x+7=-21
Since 7 does not have the variable to solve for, move it to the right hand side of the equation by subtracting 7 from both sides.
-2x=-7-21
Subtract 21 from - 7 to get - 28.
-2x=-28
Divide each term in the equation by - 2.
x=14
Answer:
x=14
