Hello!

First, let's write the problem.
3\left(x-2\right)+2\left(x+1\right)=-14
Apply the distributive property on the left side of the equation.
=3x-6+2x+2
Add like terms.
=5x-4
Let's plug that in into the original equation.
5x-4=-14
Add 4 to both sides.
5x-4+4=-14+4
5x=-10
Divide both sides by 5.
\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{-10}{5}

Our final answer would be,
x=-2

You can feel free to let me know if you have any questions regarding this!
Thanks!
