#v = 2#

Explanation:

First, combine #-7 + 4#:
#5v - 3 = 7#

Now we want to find the variable #v#, so we need to move everything else to the other side of the equation.

First, add #color(blue)3# to both sides of the equation:
#5v - 3 quadcolor(blue)(+quad3) = 7 quadcolor(blue)(+quad3)#

#5v = 10#

Now divide both sides by #color(blue)5#:
#(5v)/color(blue)5 = 10/color(blue)5#

So the final answer is
#v = 2#

Hope this helps!
