{{{2x+14=6-4x}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{2x=6-4x-14}}} Subtract {{{14}}} from both sides.



{{{2x+4x=6-14}}} Add {{{4x}}} to both sides.



{{{6x=6-14}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{6x=-8}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(-8)/(6)}}} Divide both sides by {{{6}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=-4/3}}} Reduce.



----------------------------------------------------------------------


Answer:


So the answer is {{{x=-4/3}}} which approximates to {{{x=-1.333}}}.
