Answer:

x = -18

Explanation:

To solve this problem easily, we can cross multiply. You would multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the denominator of the second, and multiply the numerator of the second fraction by the denominator of the first. In this case, (x-7) would be multiplied by 4 and 5 would be multiplied by (x-2). The answers from these two calculations would each be one side of the equation.

After doing this, you can solve and isolate x.

Work is shown in the attached picture.
