Question
$$24-6x = 4x+7$$
Answer
$$ x = \dfrac{17}{10} $$
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} 24-6x &= 4x+7&& \text{move the $ \color{blue}{ 4x } $ to the left side and $ \color{blue}{ 24 }$ to the right} \\[1 em]-6x-4x &= 7-24&& \text{simplify left and right hand side} \\[1 em]-10x &= -17&& \text{ divide both sides by $ -10 $ } \\[1 em]x &= \frac{-17}{-10}&& \\[1 em]x &= \frac{17}{10}&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
