-8x-14=-14-28x+4x
Use the distributive property to multiply 7 by -2-4x.
-8x-14=-14-24x
Combine -28x and 4x to get -24x.
-8x-14+24x=-14
Add 24x to both sides.
16x-14=-14
Combine -8x and 24x to get 16x.
16x=-14+14
Add 14 to both sides.
16x=0
Add -14 and 14 to get 0.
x=0
Product of two numbers is equal to 0 if at least one of them is 0. Since 16 is not equal to 0, x must be equal to 0.
