How to solve 14x - 8 = 3? Get the answer and stepwise instruction to solve linear equation in one variable 𝒙.
We have 14x - 8 = 3
First, we move the non x terms to the RHS of the equation. To do this, we add 8 to both sides.
Note: if a = b, then a + c = b + cTherefore, 14x - 8 + 8 = 3 + 8
or, 14x = 11
Next, divide both sides by 14, which is the coefficent of x
Note: if a = b, then a ÷ c = b ÷ c14x14 = 1114
x = 1114 or, x = 0.79
