2x-7=x\times 3
Variable x cannot be equal to any of the values -1,0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by x\left(x+1\right), the least common multiple of x^{2}+x,x+1.
2x-7-x\times 3=0
Subtract x\times 3 from both sides.
-x-7=0
Combine 2x and -x\times 3 to get -x.
-x=7
Add 7 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=-7
Multiply both sides by -1.
