Answer: x = 10

Explanation:

( 4 x − 5 ) = 7 ( x − 5 )

Simplify 7 ( x − 5 ) .

4 x − 5 = 7 x − 35

Move all terms containing x to the left side of the equation.

− 3 x − 5 = − 35

Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation.

− 3 x = − 30

Divide each term by − 3 and simplify.

x = 10
