Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x - 5(x - 5) = - 7 + 2x + 12 ← distribute and simplify left side

3x - 5x + 25 = 2x + 5

- 2x + 25 = 2x + 5 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

- 4x + 25 = 5 ( subtract 25 from both sides )

- 4x = - 20 ( divide both sides by - 4 )

x = 5

Answer:

a. $5 \frac{21}{40}$

b. $\frac{1}{42}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$a. \: 12 \frac{2}{5} - 6 \frac{7}{8}$

$\frac{62}{5} - \frac{55}{8}$

$\frac{62}{8} \times \frac{8}{8} - \frac{55}{8} \times \frac{5}{5}$

$\frac{62 \times 8 - 55 \times 5}{40}$

$\frac{221}{40}$

$5 \frac{21}{40}$

$b. \: \frac{3}{14} - \frac{4}{21}$

$\frac{3}{14} \times \frac{3}{3} - \frac{4}{21} \times \frac{2}{2}$

$\frac{3 \times 3}{42} - \frac{4 \times 2}{42}$

$\frac{1}{42}$

Hope it is helpful....
