Answer:

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+15+2x

-10 = 5x+15

Subtract 15 from each side

-10-15 = 5x+15

-25 = 5x

Divide by 5

-25/5 = 5x/5

-5 =x

Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

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

4 - 2*x - 2*7 = 3*x + 3*5

4 - 2x - 14 = 3x + 15

4 - 14 - 15 = 3x + 2x

-25 = 5x

x = -25/5

x = -5

Check:

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

4 - 2*2 = 3(0)

4 - 4 = 0
