If x represents the number of Sanchez hits, then
\n" ); document.write( "x+14 will represent the number of Washington hits.
\n" ); document.write( "The total number of hits = 214\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x + x + 14 = 214 Sanchez hits plus Washington hits
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 14 = 214
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 14 - 14 = 214 - 14 = 200 Subtract 14 from each side of the equation
\n" ); document.write( "2x/2 = 200/2 Divide both sides of the equation by 2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = 100 The number of Sanchez hits
\n" ); document.write( "x + 14 = 114 The number of Washington hits
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
