Fill in the Blank

A machinist is solving the equation ∣4x−3∣−5=2|4x - 3| - 5 = 2 to determine the acceptable tolerance for a precision-engineered metal part. After isolating the absolute value to get ∣4x−3∣=7|4x - 3| = 7, the machinist creates two linear equations to find all possible values of xx. If the first equation is 4x−3=7{}4x - 3 = 7, then the second equivalent equation is 4x−3={}4x - 3 = ____.
