Answer:

x = 2

Explanation:

5x-7=3

Move the 7 from the left side. So you'll add it to both sides

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

Making your formula

5x=10

Then divide 5x on both sides

Since 5x divided by itself is one it's just x

10 divided by 5 is 2

So the answer is x = 2

Answer:

x=2

Explanation:

5x-7=3

Add 7 to each side

5x - 7+7 = 3+7

5x = 10

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = 10/5

x = 2
