Add 16 to both sides:
x2 = 16
Take the square root of both sides:
x = ±√16
Since √16 = 4, the solutions are:
x = 4
x = −4
3x - 7 = 14
Add 7 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with x:
3x - 7 + 7 = 14 + 7
3x = 21
Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to solve for x:
x = 21/3 = 7
Distribute and combine like terms: 6x − 15 + 12x + 8 = 18x − 7.
