Please help ASAP

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

14x+7=10x+5

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.  

+14x-10x=+5-7

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

+4x=-2

We divide both sides of the equation by 4 to get x.  

x=-0.5

Answer 2

First subtract 5 to both sides


14x + 7 = 10x + 5

-5. -5


14x + 2 = 10x


Now subtract 14x to both sides


14x + 2 = 10x

-14x. -14x


2 = -4x

Last, divide -4 to both sides


2 / -4 = -4x / -4

x = -0.5 or -1/2
