Question

$$x+14-7x-5=39-x$$

Solve for x

$x=-6$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Combine $x$ and $-7x$ to get $-6x$.

$$-6x+14-5=39-x$$

Subtract $5$ from $14$ to get $9$.

$$-6x+9=39-x$$

Add $x$ to both sides.

$$-6x+9+x=39$$

Combine $-6x$ and $x$ to get $-5x$.

$$-5x+9=39$$

Subtract $9$ from both sides.

$$-5x=39-9$$

Subtract $9$ from $39$ to get $30$.

$$-5x=30$$

Divide both sides by $-5$.

$$x=\frac{30}{-5}$$

Divide $30$ by $-5$ to get $-6$.

$$x=-6$$
