7x-3(2x+5)=3(x+5)+7(x+4); solve for x
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru binomials
\n" ); document.write( "7x -6x-15 = 3x+15 +7x+28
\n" ); document.write( "Collect terms
\n" ); document.write( "x-15 = 10x+43
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract x
\n" ); document.write( "-15 = 9x+43
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 43
\n" ); document.write( "-58 = 9x
\n" ); document.write( "x = -58/9\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
