First step would be to expand it and make it 2x + 14 + 3x = 12

Second step would be to add 2x + 14 + 3x so it can be 5x + 14

Third step would be to subtract 14 from both sides

Fourth step would be to subtract 12 - 14 so it can be -2

Last step to get your answer would be to divide both sides by 5

Answer to this whole equation: x = -2/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2 {}^{4} }{3 \sqrt{xy} }

\frac{2 { }^{4} }{ \sqrt{9xy} }

\frac{1}{2 {}^{ - 4}  \sqrt{9xy} }

\frac{1}{ \frac{ \sqrt{9xy} }{16} }

\frac{1}{ \frac{ \sqrt{9xy} }{ \sqrt{256} } }

\frac{1}{ \sqrt{ \frac{9xy}{256} } }

( \sqrt{ \frac{9xy}{256} } ) {}^{ - 1}
