\left(2x-7\right)\times 4+3=x-4
Variable x cannot be equal to \frac{7}{2} since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 2x-7.
8x-28+3=x-4
Use the distributive property to multiply 2x-7 by 4.
8x-25=x-4
Add -28 and 3 to get -25.
8x-25-x=-4
Subtract x from both sides.
7x-25=-4
Combine 8x and -x to get 7x.
7x=-4+25
Add 25 to both sides.
7x=21
Add -4 and 25 to get 21.
x=\frac{21}{7}
Divide both sides by 7.
x=3
Divide 21 by 7 to get 3.
