7-2x= 1-5x+2
Combine like terms
7-2x= 3-5x
Add 5x to both sides
7+3x= 3
Subtract both sides by 7
3x= -4
Divide both sides by 3
x= -4/3
Final answer: -4/3
Gotta add a picture to show us what you want us to do.
The area of the trapezoid is 221. You get that by multiplying 13 and 17. The area of the figure on the right is 119. You get that by subtracting 5 from fourteen to give you 9. Then you multiply 9*11=99. After you have that done you need to figure out the little square, which is 5*4=20. Add 99+20=119.
Hope this helps
