    simplifying 8 + - 2x = - 8x + 14 Reorder the terms: 8 + - 2x = 14 + - 8x Solving 8 + - 2x = 14 + - 8x Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '8x' to each side of the equation. 8 + - 2x + 8x = 14 + - 8x + 8x Combine like terms: - 2x + 8x = 6x 8 + 6x = 14 + - 8x + 8x Combine like terms: - 8x + 8x = 0 8 + 6x = 14 + 0 8 + 6x = 14 Add '-8' to each side of the equation. 8 + - 8 + 6x = 14 + - 8 Combine like terms 8 + - 8 = 0 0 + 6x = 14 + - 8 6x = 14 + - 8 Combine like terms: 14 + - 8 = 6 6x = 6 Divide each side by '6'. x = 1 Simplifying x = 1
