Answer: x=+10

Step-by-step explanation: x+34=3x+14

We move all terms to the left:

x+34-(3x+14)=0

We get rid of parentheses

x-3x-14+34=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-2x+20=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-2x=-20

x=-20/-2

x=+10
