ffirst you try to get all the unknowns on one side si 5x-3=7-3x add 3x to both sides 8x-3=7 add 3 to both sides 8x=10 divide both sides by 8 x=10/8=5/4= 1 and 1/4=1.25

To solve the equation 5 x − 3 = 7 − 3 x , we first isolate x by moving all terms involving x to one side and constants to the other. After simplifying the equation, we find that the solution is x = 1.25 .
