2. If necessary:
Combine Terms
3. Apply properties:
Add Subtract
Multiply
Divide
4. To start over:
Reset

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

4-2(x+7) = 3(x+5)

Distribute

4 - 2x-14 = 3x+15

Combine like terms

-2x-10 = 3x+15

Add 2x to each side

-2x-10 +2x =3x+2x+15

-10 = 5x+15

Subtract 15 from each side

-10-15 = 5x+15-15

-25 = 5x

Divide by 5

-25/5 = 5x/5

-5 =x
