Hi my lil bunny!

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.


3(x+7)-14=22

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.


3 ( x + 7 ) - 14 = 22\\(3)^(x) + (3) (7) + - 14 = 22 (Distribute)


3x + 21 + -14 = 22


( 3x) + (21 + -14 ) = 22 (Combine Like Terms)


3x + 7 = 22\\3x + 7 = 22

Step 2: Subtract 7 from both sides.


3x + 7 - 7 = 22 - 7 \\3x = 15

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.


(3x)/(3) = (15)/(3) \\x = 5

So your answer would be :
\boxed {x = 5}
