In that equation, $x=3$ .

First, you would start off by setting all the constants on one side of the equation and the variables on the other side.

$24x-28x=2-7-7$

When you combine like terms, it will result in this simplification:

$-4x=-12$

Then divide both sides by $-4$ .

$-4/-4x=-12/-4$

Once the division is complete, you should get $x=3$ as your answer.
