Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute

2x + 2 = ( 3x - 4 )

= 2x+2= 3x - 12

Subtract 2 from both sides

2x + 2 = 3x - 12

     -2          -2

Simplify

2x = 3x - 14

Subtract 3 from both sides

2x = 3x - 14

-3x  -3x

Simplify

-x = -14

Divide both sides by the same factor

-x ÷ -1 = -14 ÷ -1

Answer

x = 14
