It helps to put parenthesese around the fractions so that we know where they begin and end. If this isn't what you meant, let me know and I'll redo it.
The LCD is 7*5=35, multiply both sides by 35 and clear your fractions.

Check by letting x=-5 and see if the sides actually equal.
we're right if I interpretted your problem correctly.
Happy Calculating!!!
