Answer 1

I believe the correct awnser is x=1 I took the test

Answer 2

`7x+10=(1)/(3)(12x-3)+14x\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\7x+10=(1)/(3)\cdot12x-(1)/(3)\cdot3+14x\\\\7x+10=4x-1+14x\\\\7x+10=18x-1\qquad\text{substitute 10 from both sides}\\\\7x=18x-11\qquad\text{subtract 18x from both sides}\\\\-11x=-11\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-11)}\\\\\boxed{x=1}`
