Answer:

104

Step-by-step explanation:

First, put the word equation into a numerical equation.

-4+5x=7x-212                            This is our equation

-4=2x-212                                  I subtracted 5x from both sides

208=2x                                     I added 212 to both sides

104=x                                         I divided both sides by 2
