3x_{2}x-14x=-15
Subtract 15 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
\left(3x_{2}-14\right)x=-15
Combine all terms containing x.
\frac{\left(3x_{2}-14\right)x}{3x_{2}-14}=-\frac{15}{3x_{2}-14}
Divide both sides by 3x_{2}-14.
x=-\frac{15}{3x_{2}-14}
Dividing by 3x_{2}-14 undoes the multiplication by 3x_{2}-14.
3x_{2}x+15=14x
Add 14x to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
3x_{2}x=14x-15
Subtract 15 from both sides.
3xx_{2}=14x-15
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{3xx_{2}}{3x}=\frac{14x-15}{3x}
Divide both sides by 3x.
x_{2}=\frac{14x-15}{3x}
Dividing by 3x undoes the multiplication by 3x.
x_{2}=\frac{14}{3}-\frac{5}{x}
Divide 14x-15 by 3x.
