Answer:

x = 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

5/2x - 7 = 3/4x + 14.

put the like terms together keeping in mind that when a number crosses the equal sign it changes its sign and it acquires the opposite sign.

5/2x - 3/4x = 14 + 7

7/4x = 21.

divide both sides by the reciprocal of 7/4, the number next to the unknown

so x = 21 ×4/7

x = 12.
