Question

-14 - 8x = -2(-3x + 7)
solution? No solution? Infinite?

Answer 1

x=0

This means that there is a solution.

Explanation:

Step 1- Distribute into the parenthesis

-14-8x= (-2)-3x+(-2)7

Step 2- Multiply

-14-8x= 6x-14

Step 3- Add 8x to both sides.

-14x-8x= 6x-14

+8x +8x

Step 4- Add 14 to both sides.

-14= 14x-14

+14 +14

Step 5- Divide both sides by 14.

0 = 14x

14 14

x=0
