4+8x-14=3x
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 4x-7.
-10+8x=3x
Subtract 14 from 4 to get -10.
-10+8x-3x=0
Subtract 3x from both sides.
-10+5x=0
Combine 8x and -3x to get 5x.
5x=10
Add 10 to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x=\frac{10}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
x=2
Divide 10 by 5 to get 2.
