Answer:

e = 10

Explanation:

9e +4= -5e + 14+ 13e

combine like terms on left side of the equation : -5e + 13e = 8e

9e + 4 = 8e + 14

subtract 8e from both sides : 9e - 8e = e and 8e - 8e cancels out

e + 4 = 14

subtract 4 from both sides : 4 - 4 cancels out and 14 - 4 = 10

we're left with e = 10
