Answer:
[tex]x = -12[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Combine like terms
[tex](-10x + 7x) + 1 = 37[/tex]
[tex]-3x + 1 = 37[/tex]
Step 2: Subtract 1 from both sides
[tex]-3x + 1 - 1 = 37 - 1[/tex]
[tex]-3x = 36[/tex]
Step 3: Divide both sides by -3
[tex]-3x / -3 = 36 / -3[/tex]
[tex]x = -12[/tex]
Answer: [tex]x = -12[/tex]
