Answer:

-14/5

Explanation:

when opening the RHS bracket.

we will get 2x-8

further solving,

2x-8= 7x+6

then rearranging,

2x-7x= 6+8

-5x=14

so x= -14/5

Answer:

x is equal to -2.8

Explanation:

2(x-4)=4x+3x+6=

2x-8=7x+6

Subtract 2x from both sides

-8=5x+6

Subtract 6 from both sides

-14=5x

x=-2.8
