3x + 1 = - 14

  • bring 1 over to the other side as it is alike to negative 14
  • when you bring 1 to the other side it turns into negative 1

3x = - 14 - 1

  • subtract negative 1 from negative 14

3x = - 15

  • bring 3 over to the other side and divide it by 15

x = - 15 ÷ 3

  • this is the answer ...

x = - 5

hope that helps :)
