Answer:
x = -17/26
Step-by-step explanation:
4(7x - 1) = 3(2x + 1) - 4(x + 6)
distribute 4 through the parentheses (do 3 and -4 as well)
28x-4=6x+3-4x-24
collect like terms
28x-4=2x+3-24 --> 28x-4=2x-21
move the variable
28x-2x-4=-21
collect like terms
26x=-21+4 --> 26x=-17
then divide
hope this helps and makes sense! :)
