2-x=5(x+14)
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
<span><span>2−x</span>=<span>5<span>(<span>x+14</span>)
</span></span></span>Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
<span><span>2−x</span>=<span>5<span>(<span>x+14</span>)
</span></span></span><span>Simplify:
</span><span><span><span>−x</span>+2</span>=<span><span>5x</span>+70
</span></span>Step 2: Subtract 5x from both sides.
<span><span><span><span>−x</span>+2</span>−<span>5x</span></span>=<span><span><span>5x</span>+70</span>−<span>5x
</span></span></span><span><span><span>−<span>6x</span></span>+2</span>=70
</span>Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.
<span><span><span><span>−<span>6x</span></span>+2</span>−2</span>=<span>70−2
</span></span><span><span>−<span>6x</span></span>=68
</span>Step 4: Divide both sides by -6.
<span><span><span>−<span>6x/</span></span><span>−6</span></span>=<span>68/<span>−6
</span></span></span><span>x=<span><span>−34/</span>3
</span></span>Answer:
<span>x=<span><span>−34/</span><span>3</span></span></span>
