\left(5x-2\right)\left(7x+3\right)+7x\left(5x-1\right)\left(-1\right)=0
Variable x cannot be equal to any of the values 0,\frac{1}{5} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 7x\left(5x-1\right).
35x^{2}+x-6+7x\left(5x-1\right)\left(-1\right)=0
Use the distributive property to multiply 5x-2 by 7x+3 and combine like terms.
35x^{2}+x-6-7x\left(5x-1\right)=0
Multiply 7 and -1 to get -7.
35x^{2}+x-6-35x^{2}+7x=0
Use the distributive property to multiply -7x by 5x-1.
x-6+7x=0
Combine 35x^{2} and -35x^{2} to get 0.
8x-6=0
Combine x and 7x to get 8x.
8x=6
Add 6 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=\frac{6}{8}
Divide both sides by 8.
x=\frac{3}{4}
Reduce the fraction \frac{6}{8} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.
