Answer:

x = 5

x = 4

Explanation:

First one, move the constants and variables on seperate sides:

4x-3 = 2x+7

4x-2x = 7+3

2x = 10

x = 5

Second one, move the constants and variables on seperate sides:

2x+6 = 7x-14

2x-7x = -14-6

-5x = -20

x = 4

Answer:

Explanation:

4x - 3 = 2x + 7

4x - 2x = 3 + 7

2x = 10

x = 5

and

2x + 6 = 7x -14

6 + 14 = 7x -2x

20 = 5x

4 = x
