Factor the polynomial by factoring out the greatest common factor, 7x2 + 5 - x = 6x2 + 10

x = -5

Soultion:

→ 7 × 2 + 5 - x = 6 × 2 + 10

Multiply.

→ 14 + 5 - x = 12 + 10.

Combine like terms.

→ 19 - x = 24

Isolate x (I'm going to add x and subtract 24 from both sides to avoid changing signs)

Answer

= x = -5
