It's a 1st order equation in x, meaning the highest power of the unknown (x) is 1.
If you want to solve for x (you didn't say that),
14x - 20 = 109
14x = 129
x = 129/14
x = 9 3/14

14x - 20 = 109
14x=109%2B20
14x=129 ----------->cross%2814%29x%2Fcross%2814%29=cross%28129%299.2143%2Fcross%2814%29
x=9.2143
