Answer:

Bellow

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4+5x−7=10+3x−2x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4+5x−7=10+3x−2x

4+5x+−7=10+3x+−2x

(5x)+(4+−7)=(3x+−2x)+(10)(Combine Like Terms)

5x+−3=x+10

5x−3=x+10

Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.

5x−3−x=x+10−x

4x−3=10

Step 3: Add 3 to both sides.

4x−3+3=10+3

4x=13

Step 4: Divide both sides by 4.

4x/4 = 13/4

x = 13/4

Answer:

x = 13/4
