Answer: [tex]x=-3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to apply the distributive property. Or, you could just divide by 6 on both sides. Ill just apply the distributive property:

[tex]14x = -24 +6x[/tex]

Now subtract 6x from both sides to get:

[tex]8x = -24[/tex]

Divide both sides by 8 to get x = -3
