The solution

You have entered [src]
-5*(x - 7) = 30 + -2*x - 1
5(x7)=(2x1)+30- 5 \left(x - 7\right) = \left(- 2 x - 1\right) + 30
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-5*(x-7) = 30-(2*x+1)

Expand brackets in the left part
-5*x+5*7 = 30-(2*x+1)

Expand brackets in the right part
-5*x+5*7 = 30-2*x-1

Looking for similar summands in the right part:
35 - 5*x = 29 - 2*x

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
5x=2x6- 5 x = - 2 x - 6
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
(3)x=6\left(-3\right) x = -6
Divide both parts of the equation by -3
x = -6 / (-3)

We get the answer: x = 2
