x+5-x\times \frac{3}{2}=0
Subtract x\times \frac{3}{2} from both sides.
-\frac{1}{2}x+5=0
Combine x and -x\times \frac{3}{2} to get -\frac{1}{2}x.
-\frac{1}{2}x=-5
Subtract 5 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=-5\left(-2\right)
Multiply both sides by -2, the reciprocal of -\frac{1}{2}.
x=10
Multiply -5 and -2 to get 10.
