5\left(2x-7\right)-2\left(3x+1\right)+10x=50-5\left(x+6\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 10, the least common multiple of 2,5.
10x-35-2\left(3x+1\right)+10x=50-5\left(x+6\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 5 by 2x-7.
10x-35-6x-2+10x=50-5\left(x+6\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply -2 by 3x+1.
4x-35-2+10x=50-5\left(x+6\right)
Combine 10x and -6x to get 4x.
4x-37+10x=50-5\left(x+6\right)
Subtract 2 from -35 to get -37.
14x-37=50-5\left(x+6\right)
Combine 4x and 10x to get 14x.
14x-37=50-5x-30
Use the distributive property to multiply -5 by x+6.
14x-37=20-5x
Subtract 30 from 50 to get 20.
14x-37+5x=20
Add 5x to both sides.
19x-37=20
Combine 14x and 5x to get 19x.
19x=20+37
Add 37 to both sides.
19x=57
Add 20 and 37 to get 57.
x=\frac{57}{19}
Divide both sides by 19.
x=3
Divide 57 by 19 to get 3.
