14-9%284-3q%29=-5%28q%2B6%29-7q Start with the given equation.


14-36%2B27q=-5q-30-7q Distribute.


27q-22=-5q-30-7q Combine like terms on the left side.


27q-22=-12q-30 Combine like terms on the right side.


27q=-12q-30%2B22 Add 22 to both sides.


27q%2B12q=-30%2B22 Add 12q to both sides.


39q=-30%2B22 Combine like terms on the left side.


39q=-8 Combine like terms on the right side.


q=%28-8%29%2F%2839%29 Divide both sides by 39 to isolate q.

Answer:

So the solution is q=-8%2F39
