x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
-8x + 26 = - 6x + 1 4
Collect like terms, we have:
26 - 14 = - 6x + 8x
Note that the symbols changed after switching sides.
From the above, we have:
12 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2, to solve for x.
x = 12/2
x = 6.

Answer: x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Add 6x to both sides.
-8x+26+6x=-6x+14+6x
-2x+26=14
Step 2: Subtract 26 from both sides.
-2x+26-26=14-26
-2x=-12
Step 3: Divide both sides by - 2.
-2x/-2 = - 12/-2
x = 6
