Solve the equation

4-2(x+7)= 3(x+5)

 x = -5.

To solve this equation, I first would like to warn you about the long answer I am about to post for you. I'll be putting in very detailed steps for you, showing you how to simplify and distribute numbers, etc. :)

Let us solve your equation step-by-step.

Step 1) Simplify both sides of the equation.

To simplify this, we will...

4 + (-2) (x) + (-2) (7) = (3) (x) + (3) (5)

4 + - 2x + - 14 = 3x + 15

(-2x) + (4 + - 14) = 3x + 15

Now, we combine Like Terms...

-2x + - 10 = 3x + 15

-2x - 10 = 3x + 15

Step 2) Subtract 3x from both sides.

- 2x - 10 - 3x = 3x + 15 - 3x

- 5x - 10 = 15

Step 3) Add 10 to both sides.

- 5x - 10 + 10 = 15 + 10

- 5x = 25

Step 4) Divide both sides by -5.

-5x/-5 = 25/-5

So, our final answer is x = -5.

Hope this helps!
