Answer:

One solution: x =21.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

12x + 6 = 14(2x – 24)                    Remove the brackets

Solution

12x + 6 = 28x - 336                      Add 336 to both sides.

12x + 6+336 = 28x - 336             Combine

12x + 342 = 28x -336+336        

12x + 342 = 28x                            Subtract 12x from both sides.

12x-12x + 342 = 28x - 12x             Combine

342 = 16x                                      Divide by 16

342/16 = 16x/16

21.6=x
