Answer:

x=0

Explanation:

−6+5x+14=8

(5x)+(−6+14)=8(Combine Like Terms)

5x+8=8

5x+8=8

Step 2: Subtract 8 from both sides.

5x+8−8=8−8

5x=0

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5.

5x

5

Combine Like Terms.

8 + 5x = 8

Subtract 8 to both sides.

8 + 5x - 8 = 8 - 8

Simplify.

5x = 0

Divide 5 to both sides.

5x/5 = 0/5

Simplify.

x = 0

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
