You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"2x%2B14=6-4x\"$ Start with the given equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x=6-4x-14\"$ Subtract $\"14\"$ from both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x%2B4x=6-14\"$ Add $\"4x\"$ to both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"6x=6-14\"$ Combine like terms on the left side.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"6x=-8\"$ Combine like terms on the right side.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=%28-8%29%2F%286%29\"$ Divide both sides by $\"6\"$ to isolate $\"x\"$ .\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=-4%2F3\"$ Reduce.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the solution is $\"x=-4%2F3\"$ \r
