1+4x+5x^3=0

Explanation:

Given -

3-4x-7x^2+4x^3=2-8x-7x^2-x^3

Add -2 to both sides

3-2-4x-7x^2+4x^3=2-2-8x-7x^2-x^3
1-4x-7x^2+4x^3=cancel2cancel(-2)-8x-7x^2-x^3
1-4x-7x^2+4x^3=-8x-7x^2-x^3

Add 8x to both sides

1-4x+8x-7x^2+4x^3=-8x+8x-7x^2-x^3
1+4x-7x^2+4x^3=cancel(-8x)cancel(+8x)-7x^2-x^3
1+4x-7x^2+4x^3=-7x^2-x^3

Add 7x^2 to both sides

1+4xcancel(-7x^2)cancel(+7x^2)+4x^3=cancel(-7x^2)cancel(+7x^2)-x^3
1+4x+4x^3=-x^3

Add x^3 to both sides

1+4x+4x^3+x^3=-x^3+x^3
1+4x+5x^3=cancel(-x^3)cancel(+x^3)
1+4x+5x^3=0
