3X - 7 = 5

add 7 to each side

3X - 7 + 7 = 5 + 7

3X = 12

divide both sides constants and coefficients by 3

X = 4

check

3(4) - 7 = 5

12 - 7 = 5

5 = 5

Oh, dude, this is like basic math 101. So, if 3x-7 equals 5, you just add 7 to both sides to isolate x. That gives you 3x = 12. Then, you divide by 3 to find x, which is 4. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
