Answer:

D. X=7

Explanation:

Use the order of operations to solve this problem.

First, combine like terms.

7x-5x=2x

Our equation is now 2x-3=x+4

Now, add 3 to both sides.

Our equation is now 2x=x+7

Subtract x from both sides.

x=7

The answer is D. X=7

Feel free to ask any questions.

Hope this helps!
