Question 183305


{{{3(2x-1)+5=14}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{6x-3+5=14}}} Distribute.



{{{6x+2=14}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{6x=14-2}}} Subtract {{{2}}} from both sides.



{{{6x=12}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(12)/(6)}}} Divide both sides by {{{6}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=2}}} Reduce.
