Answer 1

x = 10

Explanation:

Given the problem,
`(4(3x - 2))/(8) = 14`

To solve for x, we must first eliminate the fraction by multiplying both sides of the equation by 8 (or
`(8)/(1)` ):

`(8) (4(3x - 2))/(8) = 14 (8)`

4(3x - 2) = 112

Next, divide both sides of the equation by 4:

`(4(3x - 2))/(4) = (112)/(4)`

3x - 2 = 28

Add 2 on both sides of the equation to isolate 3x:

3x - 2 + 2 = 28 + 2

3x = 30

Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to solve for x:

`(3x)/(3) = (30)/(3)`

x = 10
