Question 688289
{{{2x-3x-4=7+4x-2}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{-x-4=7+4x-2}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{-x-4=4x+5}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{-x=4x+5+4}}} Add {{{4}}} to both sides.



{{{-x-4x=5+4}}} Subtract {{{4x}}} from both sides.



{{{-5x=5+4}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{-5x=9}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(9)/(-5)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-5}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=-9/5}}} Reduce.
