Question 552632
{{{14+6=3x-4}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{20=3x-4}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{0=3x-4-20}}} Subtract {{{20}}} from both sides.



{{{-3x=-4-20}}} Subtract {{{3x}}} from both sides.



{{{-3x=-24}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(-24)/(-3)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-3}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=8}}} Reduce.
