Question

2(4x-3)+2x=14
Help! This one should be easy just want to check my work!

Answer 1

8x - 6 + 2x = 14

10x - 6 = 14

10x = 14+6

10x = 20

x = 20/10

x = 2

Hope it helps!!!

Answer 2

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x−3)+2x=14

Simplify both sides of the equation

2(4x−3)+2x=14

(2)(4x)+(2)(−3)+2x=14(Distribute)

8x+−6+2x=14

(8x+2x)+(−6)=14(Combine Like Terms)

10x+−6=14

10x−6=14

Add 6 to both sides

10x−6+6=14+6

10x=20

Divide both sides by 10

10x/10=20/10

x = 2
