Solve for x. Check each step or answer that is correct.

34 (x + 4) = 14 (x + 8)

(A) Distribute 34 on the left side of the equation.

(B) Distribute 14 on the right side of the equation.

(C) Subtract 14x from each side of the equation.

(D) Add 3 to each side of the equation.

(E) Add 2 to each side of the equation.

(F) Multiply each side of the equation by 2.

If you would like to solve the equation 34 * (x + 4) = 14 * (x + 8) for x, you can do this using the following steps:

34 * (x + 4) = 14 * (x + 8)

(A) 34 * x + 34 * 4 = 14 * (x + 8)

(B) 34 * x + 34 * 4 = 14 * x + 14 * 8 / - 14 * x

(C) 34 * x - 14 * x + 34 * 4 = 14 * x - 14 * x + 14 * 8

20 * x + 34 * 4 = 14 * 8

20 * x + 136 = 112

So far it is correct.

20 * x + 136 = 112

20 * x = 112 - 136

20 * x = - 24 / 20

x = - 24 / 20

x = - 6/5 = - 1 1/5

The correct result would be - 1 1/5.
