7-4x=22-9x-27
Use the distributive property to multiply -9 by x+3.
7-4x=-5-9x
Subtract 27 from 22 to get -5.
7-4x+9x=-5
Add 9x to both sides.
7+5x=-5
Combine -4x and 9x to get 5x.
5x=-5-7
Subtract 7 from both sides.
5x=-12
Subtract 7 from -5 to get -12.
x=\frac{-12}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
x=-\frac{12}{5}
Fraction \frac{-12}{5} can be rewritten as -\frac{12}{5} by extracting the negative sign.
