Question

a)8x-14=5x-6x+x
b)5y-2y+10=y+13-2

Answer 1

a) 8x-14=5x-6x+x
    8x-5x+6x-x=14
    8x=14
    x=14/8
    x=7/4

b)5y-2y+10=y+13-2
   5y-2y-y=13-2-10
   2y=1
   y=1/2

Answer 2

a)

8x -14 = 5x - 6x + x
8x - 14 = 5x + x - 6x
8x - 14 = 6x - 6x
8x - 14 = 0
8x = 14  (:2)
4x = 7
x = 7/4

**********************************

b)
5y - 2y + 10 = y + 13 - 2
3y + 10 = y + 11
3y - y = 11 - 10
2y = 1
y = 1/2
