Find the value of x in this equation: x + 2(x + 7) = 14x– 7.
- A 3/2
- B 21/11
- C 11/7
- D 2/5
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
To find the value of x in the equation, we first distribute the 2 to the terms inside the parentheses: x + 2x + 14 = 14x - 7. Then, we combine like terms: 3x + 14 = 14x - 7. Next, we isolate the variable terms on one side and the constant terms on the other side: 14 + 7 = 14x - 3x. Simplifying further, we have 21 = 11x. Finally, we divide both sides by 11 to solve for x, resulting in x = 21/11.
