Question 702597
{{{5x+7x-2=6-14x+2x}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{12x-2=6-14x+2x}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{12x-2=-12x+6}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{12x=-12x+6+2}}} Add {{{2}}} to both sides.



{{{12x+12x=6+2}}} Add {{{12x}}} to both sides.



{{{24x=6+2}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{24x=8}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(8)/(24)}}} Divide both sides by {{{24}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=1/3}}} Reduce.
