6%281-6x%29-4%28x-2%29=14 Start with the given equation.


6-36x-4x%2B8=14 Distribute.


-40x%2B14=14 Combine like terms on the left side.


-40x=14-14 Subtract 14 from both sides.


-40x=0 Combine like terms on the right side.


x=%280%29%2F%28-40%29 Divide both sides by -40 to isolate x.


x=0 Reduce.
