9-7x=2\left(13-5x\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 20, the least common multiple of 20,10.
9-7x=26-10x
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 13-5x.
9-7x+10x=26
Add 10x to both sides.
9+3x=26
Combine -7x and 10x to get 3x.
3x=26-9
Subtract 9 from both sides.
3x=17
Subtract 9 from 26 to get 17.
x=\frac{17}{3}
Divide both sides by 3.
