Answer:

x = - 1

Explanation:

First you wanna subtract 104 from both sides

6x + 104 - 104 = 16x + 114 - 104

you should get 0 on the left and 10 on the right

next you subtract 16x from both sides

6x - 16x = 16x - 16x + 10

you should get -10x on the left side and get 0 on your right

next you divide both side by -10

-10x ÷ -10 = 10 ÷ -10

the left should be 0 and the right should be -1

that's how i got the answer and I hope it helped !
