2x+6=x−14
Since x contains the variable to solve for, move it to the left-hand side of the equation by subtracting x from both sides.
2x+6−x=−14
Since 2x and −x are like terms, add −x to 2x to get x.
x+6=−14
Since 6 does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right-hand side of the equation by subtracting 6 from both sides.
x=−6−14
Subtract 14 from −6 to get −20.
x=−20
