Step 1. Simplify
x+14-4 to
x+10


7x-6=x+10


Step 2. Add 6 to both sides


7x=x+10+6


Step 3. Simplify
x+10+6 to
x+16



7x=x+16


Step 4. Subtract x from both sides


7x-x=16


Step 5. Simplify
7x-x to
6x



6x=16


Step 6. Divide both sides by 6


x= (16)/(6)


Step 7. Simplify

(16)/(6) to
(8)/(3)



x= (8)/(3)


Done! :)
