Answer:

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation

4+6−6=14−6

Simplify

Subtract the numbers

4x+6−6=14−6

4=14−6

Subtract the numbers again

4x=14−6

4=8

Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

4=8

4 4

Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator

x= 8

4

Divide the numbers

= 2

Answer:

x=2

Explanation:

4x + 6 = 14

4x = 14 - 6

4x = 8 (divide both sides by 4 to get x)

4x/4 = 8/4

x = 2
