The equation -2(5x+8) = 14+6x solved using step by step representation is x = -15/8.

<h3>Solving steps for the Equation</h3>

The equation to be considered as given in the task content is; -2(5x+8)=14+6x.

It follows from the task content that the steps for solving the equation are as follows;

-2(5x+8) = 14+6x

  • Step 1: opening parenthesis

-10x - 16 = 14 + 6x

  • Step 2: collect like terms

-10x - 6x = 14 + 16

  • Step 3: evaluate

spayn [35]
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have the following information given in the problem above: <span>twice the length of the shortest side plus the length of the longest side is 248 inches.

 2. Therefore, keeping on mind the information above, you have:

 x: the shortest side
 x+6: the longest side

 2x+(x+6)=248
 3x+6=248
 3x=242
 x=242/3
 x=80.66 (The shortest side)

 x+6=80.66+6=86.66 (The longest side)

 The answer is: 86.66
