41x-20-20x^{2}=\left(10x-3\right)\left(7-2x\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 4-5x by 4x-5 and combine like terms.
41x-20-20x^{2}=76x-20x^{2}-21
Use the distributive property to multiply 10x-3 by 7-2x and combine like terms.
41x-20-20x^{2}-76x=-20x^{2}-21
Subtract 76x from both sides.
-35x-20-20x^{2}=-20x^{2}-21
Combine 41x and -76x to get -35x.
-35x-20-20x^{2}+20x^{2}=-21
Add 20x^{2} to both sides.
-35x-20=-21
Combine -20x^{2} and 20x^{2} to get 0.
-35x=-21+20
Add 20 to both sides.
-35x=-1
Add -21 and 20 to get -1.
x=\frac{-1}{-35}
Divide both sides by -35.
x=\frac{1}{35}
Fraction \frac{-1}{-35} can be simplified to \frac{1}{35} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
