Answer:
x=13/2=61/2=6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the distributive property to multiply 7 by x−2.
7x−14=3(x+4)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x+4.
7x−14=3x+12
Subtract 3x from both sides.
7x−14−3x=12
Combine 7x and −3x to get 4x.
4x−14=12
Add 14 to both sides.
4x=12+14
Add 12 and 14 to get 26.
4x=26
Divide both sides by 4.
x= 4/26
Reduce the fraction
4/26 to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.
x= 2/13
