Question

Solve for the equation 6x+14=7x+8

Answer 1

x=6

Explanation:

First, subtract 6x from both sides to get:

14=x+8

Now, subtract 8 from both sides to get x alone:

6 = x

Answer 2

x = 6

Explanation:

For this problem, we simply will isolate the x to find the value of x:

6x + 14 = 7x + 8

6x + -6x + 14 = 7x + -6x + 8

14 = x + 8

14 + -8 = x + 8 + -8

6 = x

Hence, x = 6.
