Answer:
__________________________________
Step 1:
[tex]8(2x + 7) - 5(3x + 14)[/tex]
write equation
________________________________
Step 2:
[tex] = 16x + 56 - 15x - 70[/tex]
open brackets and multiply 8 with (2x+7) and 5 with (3x + 14)
________________________________
Step 3:
[tex] = 16x - 15x - 70 + 56[/tex]
Take similar digits same side to make equation more easy to solve
________________________________
Step 4:
[tex] = x−14[/tex]
subtract 16x with 15x to get→x and subtract -70 and 56 to get -40
