Answer

The value of x is 20

Expalantion

As given in question

[tex]x/5+x/2 = 14[/tex]

We have to determine the value of x

So, by taking LCM of given equation

[tex](2x + 5x)/10 = 14[/tex]

By taking 10 to other side of equation

[tex]2x + 5x = 14 * 10[/tex]

[tex]2x + 5x = 140[/tex]

[tex]7x = 140[/tex]

[tex]x = 140/7[/tex]

x = 20
