Solve 10(x + 4) - 3 = 14x + 1

Evaluate

10 (x + 4) - 3 = 14 x + 1

Move the expression to the left side

10 (x + 4) - 3 - (14 x + 1) = 0

Subtract the terms

More Steps

10 (x + 4) - 4 - 14 x = 0

Calculate

More Steps

- 4 x + 36 = 0

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

- 4 x = 0 - 36

Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression

- 4 x = - 36

Change the signs on both sides of the equation

4 x = 36

Divide both sides

\frac{4 x}{4} = \frac{36}{4}

Divide the numbers

x = \frac{36}{4}
