Question 43739
Hello!
We have:

{{{2x=7x-10}}}

Our objective is to isolate x. Let's move the 7x to the left. We get:

{{{2x - 7x = -10}}}

We now take x as common facor:

{{{x(2-7) = -10}}}
{{{-5x = -10}}}

Finally, we move the -5 to the right:

{{{x = (-10)/(-5)}}}
{{{x = 2}}}


I hope this helps!
