Simplify \(18x\times 2\) to \(36x\).
\[28x+2=18x-7+36x-7\]
Simplify \(18x-7+36x-7\) to \(54x-14\).
\[28x+2=54x-14\]
Subtract \(28x\) from both sides.
\[2=54x-14-28x\]
Simplify \(54x-14-28x\) to \(26x-14\).
\[2=26x-14\]
Add \(14\) to both sides.
\[2+14=26x\]
Simplify \(2+14\) to \(16\).
\[16=26x\]
Divide both sides by \(26\).
\[\frac{16}{26}=x\]
Simplify \(\frac{16}{26}\) to \(\frac{8}{13}\).
\[\frac{8}{13}=x\]
Switch sides.
\[x=\frac{8}{13}\]
Decimal Form: 0.615385
x=8/13
