Answer:


\boxed{\bold{x=(1)/(3)}}

Explanation:

Combine Similar Elements:
\bold{-12x+39x-18x=9x}


\bold{14+9x=256-60x-657x}

Combine Similar Elements:
\bold{-60x-657x=-717x}


\bold{14+9x=256-717x}

Subtract 14 From Both Sides


\bold{14+9x-14=256-717x-14}

Simplify


\bold{9x=-717x+242}

Add
\bold{717x} To Both Sides


\bold{9x+717x=-717x+242+717x}

Simplify


\bold{726x=242}

Divide Both Sides By
\bold{726}


\bold{(726x)/(726)=(242)/(726)}

Simplify


\bold{x=(1)/(3)}
