Question 669296
Starting with
{{{(-1/2)(3x-5)=7}}}
...
Multiply the entire equation by -2
{{{(cross(-2))(-1/cross(2))(3x-5)=7(highlight(-2))}}}
3x - 5 = -14
...
Isolate x
{{{3x - cross(5) + cross(5) = -14 + highlight(5)}}}
3x = -9
...
Divide both sides by 3
{{{cross(3)x/cross(3) = -9/highlight(3)}}}
{{{highlight_green(x = -3)}}}
