Answer:

x = {2, 5}

Explanation:

Please include the instructions for each problem. I will assume that they say "solve the following equation for x."

By combining like terms, we get 2x^2-14x+27=7 => 2x^2 - 14x + 20 = 0

and this simplifies to x^2 - 7x + 10 = 0.

This can be rewritten as (x - 2)(x - 5) = 0, which yields x = {2, 5}
