Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Subtract 5x from both sides.

  • 7x-2-5x=5x+14-5x
  • 2x-2=14  

Step 2: Add 2 to both sides.

  • 2x-2+2=14+2
  • 2x=16

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

  • 2x/2=16/2
  • x=8

Step 4: Check if solution is correct.

  • 7(8)-2=5(8)+14
  • 56-2=40+14
  • 54=54

Therefore, x = 8.

------------ ,    obtaining         ---------------------------
 2 miles                                           2 mi
