Answer:


x= (9)/(2)

decimal: x=4.5

Explanation:


\mathrm{Subtract\:}7\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}


2x+7-7=4x-2-7


\mathrm{Simplify}


2x=4x-9


\mathrm{Subtract\:}4x\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}


2x-4x=4x-9-4x


\mathrm{Simplify}


-2x=-9


\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-2


(-2x)/(-2)=(-9)/(-2)


\mathrm{Simplify}


x=(9)/(2)
