If you were asked to describe how you would solve for an unknown value in an equation, how would you explain that process? Give it a try here, using the equation
given as a step by step example to go along with your explanation. Be as detailed as
possible for each step of the solution.
3(x - 2) = 5x – 14

4

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 2) = 5x - 14      (given)

3x -6 = 5x -14          (Distribute the "3" to "x" and "2")

-2x -6 = -14              (subtract "5x" from both sides)

-2x = -8                    (Subtract "-6" from both sides)

x = 4                         (divide both sides with "-2")

i hope this is what you were looking for.
