<PRE><B>Question 125824</B>
{{{5/7x+4=14}}} Start with the given equation



{{{7x(5/cross(7x)+4)=7x(14)}}} Multiply both sides by the LCD 7x. This will eliminate every fraction.



{{{5+28x=98x}}} Distribute and multiply



{{{28x=98x-5}}}Subtract 5 from both sides



{{{28x-98x=-5}}} Subtract 98x from both sides



{{{-70x=-5}}} Combine like terms on the left side



{{{x=(-5)/(-70)}}} Divide both sides by -70 to isolate x




{{{x=1/14}}} Reduce

Answer:

So our answer is {{{x=1/14}}}  (which is approximately {{{x=0.0714285714285714}}} in decimal form)
