I believe that you are looking for the equation.
Equation:
5x + 2 = 77

If you need to solve for x this is what you need to do:
First, subtract 2 from both sides:
5x + 2 = 77
- 2 - 2
5x = 75
Next, divide by 5:
5x = 75
(Divide by 5 from both sides)
x = 15

I hope this helps!

Answer: x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

7(2x+5)=4x-9-x

Expand parenthesis

14x+35=4x-9-x

Combine like terms

14x+35=3x-9

Subtract 35 on both sides

14x+35-35=3x-9-35

14x=3x-44

Subtract 3x on both sides

14x-3x=3x-44-3x

11x=-44

Divide 11 on both sides

11x/11=-44/11

x=-4

Hope this helps!! :)

In order to get the answer to this question you have to remember that if the exponent is positive you need to move to the right, and if the exponent is negative you got to move to the left.
