- I believe the answer is 3x=1
I did this as my equation... 7x+4=5+3x+1x
7x+4=5+4x
-4 -4
-------
7x = 1+4x
-4x -4x
----------------
3x = 1

- Answer option #2: 3x=1

7x + 4 = 5 + 3x + 1x
combine like terms first

7x + 4 = 5 + 4x
move the 4x over to the left side
3x + 4 = 5
Move the 4 over to the right side
3x = 1 is the answer
