Answer: X = 1
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1: First distribute the 5. 5*x = 5x 5*2=10
Step 2: So now you have 5x+10-7=3x+5
Then you want to combine like terms (CLT)
10-7= 3
5x+3=3x+5
Step 3: Now you want to have opposite integers
5x+3=3x+5
-3 -3
5x=3x+2
Step 4: Like the last step but with the numbers that have variables
5x=3x+2
-3x -3x
2x=2
Step 5: Now you want to divide the variable with the whole number
2x=2
