Enter your answer in the box.

x =

Answer 1

Answer:

x= -$\frac{206}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by adding 8 to both sides:

3x - 8 + 8 = -214 + 8

you get 3x= -206

Next simplify 3x= -206

Divide both sides by 3

$\frac{3x}{3}$ = $\frac{-206}{3}$

Simplified you get:

x= - $\frac{206}{3}$

Answer 2

Answer:

1) Add 8 to both sides of the equation.

$3x - 8 = -214\\\\3x - 8 + 8 = - 214 + 8$

2) simplify

Add the numbers

Add the  numbers

$3x = -206$

3) Divide both sides of the equation by the same term.

$3x = -206\\\\\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{-206}{3}$

4) simplify

cancel terms that are in both the numerators and denominator.

$x = \frac{-206}{3}$

solution

$x = \frac{-206 }{3}$
