    x = 6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    -8x + 26 = - 6x + 1 4

    Collect like terms, we have:

    26 - 14 = - 6x + 8x

    Note that the symbols changed after switching sides.

    From the above, we have:

    12 = 2x

    Divide both sides by 2, to solve for x.

    x = 12/2

    x = 6.

    Answer: x = 6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step 1: Add 6x to both sides.

    -8x+26+6x=-6x+14+6x

    -2x+26=14

    Step 2: Subtract 26 from both sides.

    -2x+26-26=14-26

    -2x=-12

    Step 3: Divide both sides by - 2.

    -2x/-2 = - 12/-2

    x = 6
