Answer:
x=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify 34⋅(14x+8)−(12x+2)34⋅(14x+8)-(12x+2).
−5x−6416=38⋅(4−x)−14x-5x-6416=38⋅(4-x)-14x
Simplify 38⋅(4−x)−14x38⋅(4-x)-14x.
−5x−6416=32−5x8-5x-6416=32-5x8
Move all terms containing xx to the left side of the equation.
5x+6416=325x+6416=32
Multiply both sides of the equation by 1616.
5x+64=32⋅(16)5x+64=32⋅(16)
Remove parentheses.
5x+64=32⋅(16)5x+64=32⋅(16)
Simplify 32⋅(16)32⋅(16).
5x+64=245x+64=24
Move all terms not containing xx to the right side of the equation.
5x=−405x=-40
Divide each term by 55 and simplify.
x=−8
Hope this helps! :)
