The value of x equals to 10/6 or 1.6 repeating.
First, subtract x from 7x. This should give you 5= 6x -5. Next, add a positive 5 to the negative 5 in order to cancel out. Make sure to add a five to the other side. This should give you 10=6x. You then divide 6 on both sides. This will then give you the answer 10/6 or 1.6 repeating.
