Answer:


x=-(5)/(3)\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x=3

Explanation:


2\left|3x-2\right|=14

⇒ Divide both sides by 2


(2\left|3x-2\right|)/(2)=(14)/(2)


\left|3x-2\right|=7

⇒ Now, apply absolute rule:- if |x|=a,a > a than x=a or x=-a


3x-2=-7\quad

or...


3x-2=7

Now,


3x-2=-7

⇒ Add 2 to both sides:-


3x-2+2=-7+2


3x=-5

⇒ Divide both sides by 3:-


(3x)/(3)=(-5)/(3)


x=-(5)/(3)


3x-2=7

⇒ Add 2 to both sides:-


3x-2+2=7+2


3x=9

⇒ Divide both sides by 3:-


(3x)/(3)=(9)/(3)


x=3
