How to solve: (x-2) = -14(x- 8)

X times 2 is 3x so write 3x = -14 + 8x to simple it. Then u to the complete other

-14 minus on both sides then do 3x = 11 then u divide 3 on both sides cross out 3 and 3 and divide 3 by 11 then you’ll get x= 3.6

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, fix the bracket on the R.H.S

x- 2 = -14x + 112

Collect like terms: Bring x to one side and variables to the other side.

x+14x = 112 + 2

15x = 114

Divide both sides by 15

x = 114/15

x = 7.6
