Hello!

Answer:

Let's use 'n' to represent number.

5n - 2 = n + 14

Subtract n from both sides:

- n         - n

Next, add two to both sides of the equation.

4n - 2 = 14

   + 2    + 2

4n = 14

Since 4n is being multiplied, we must perform the opposite operation on both sides (division).

[tex]\frac{4n}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{14}{4}[/tex]

n = [tex]\frac{14}{4}[/tex]
