Answer:
[tex]x=-1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]7(4x+1)-3x=5x-13[/tex]
Expand:
[tex]28x+7-3x=5x-13[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]25x+7=5x-13[/tex]
Subtract 7 from both sides:
[tex]25x+7-7=5x-13-7[/tex]
[tex]25x=5x-20[/tex]
Subtract 5x from both sides:
[tex]25x-5x=5x-20-5x[/tex]
[tex]20x=-20\\[/tex]
Divide both sides by 20:
[tex]\frac{20x}{20}=\frac{-20}{20}[/tex]
[tex]x=-1[/tex]
