Explanation:

Part 1: 4x + 7 = 3(2x - 5)4x+7=3(2x−5)

4x+7=6x-154x+7=6x−15

7=6x-15-4x7=6x−15−4x

7=2x-157=2x−15

7+15=2x7+15=2x

22=2x22=2x

22=2x / 222=2x/2

x=11x=11

Part 2: Sam is not correct because he messed up the second step. He added 2x on both sides to get 7x, instead he should have subtracted.
