2(3x - 1) + 2(4x + 5) = 8

Distribute as we get,
Remove the brackets,
Then combine,
Move +8 to the right side and change the +8 to -8 (The operator must be the opposite when move to the other side.)
Move 14 to the right side so we can find the value of x. (Because it's x multiply 14 then 0 will be divided by 14.)
Therefore, x = 0.
