Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

with "and" you mean "+" ?

if so, then

3 + 0.75x = 10 + 0.25x

you know that it is perfectly OK to add or subtract the same number to/from both sides of the equation ?

the same for multiplication and division.

the important thing is to do always the same thing to both sides.

1. subtracting 3 from both sides

0.75x = 7 + 0.25x

2. subtracting 0.25x from both sides

0.5x = 7

3. dividing both sides by 0.5

x = 7/0.5 = 7 / 1/2 = 7 × 2/1 = 14
