3(7x+7)=7(4x+10)

Solution

Let's solve the equation:

3(7x+7)=7(4x+10)3(7x + 7) = 7(4x + 10)

Step 1: Distribute the constants on both sides.

On the left side: 3×(7x+7)=21x+213 \times (7x + 7) = 21x + 21

On the right side: 7×(4x+10)=28x+707 \times (4x + 10) = 28x + 70

Now the equation is: 21x+21=28x+7021x + 21 = 28x + 70

Step 2: Move all terms with xx to one side and constant terms to the other side.

Subtract 21x21x from both sides: 21=7x+7021 = 7x + 70

Now subtract 70 from both sides: 49=7x-49 = 7x

Step 3: Solve for (x\
