Answer:
The value of x is all real numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2x -1) + 8 -14x = -8x + 4 + 2x <== distribute 4
4(2x) + 4(-1) + 8 -14x = -8x + 4 + 2x
8x - 4 + 8 -14x = -8x + 4 + 2x <== combine any like terms on both sides
-6x + 4 = -6x + 4 <== both sides are equal
Since both sides of the equation are equal, this means that any x value makes the equation true. Any real number can be used as the value of x.
