Answer:

The first step will be grouping the like terms together on both sides of '='

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is :

[tex]x+7=2x+5-4x[/tex]

The first step will be grouping the like terms together on both sides of '='

[tex]x-2x+4x=5-7[/tex]

Now adding both sides.

[tex]3x=-2[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 3, we get

[tex]x=\frac{-2}{3}[/tex]
