-4(x+3)=3(x-1)
-4x-12=3x-3
-9 = 7x
-9/7 = x
5x+14-2x=9-(4x+2)
3x+14 = 9-4x-2
3x+14 = -4x+7
7x = -7
x = -1

5x+14-2x=9-(4x+2) left side 5x-2x=3x authentic side 9-(+2)=7 so 3x+14=7-4x than take the minus 4 and make it a stunning 4 and take it to the left side 3x+14+4x=7 than take the effective 14 and make it a detrimental 14 and take it to the right side so 3x+4x=7-14 7x=-7 7x/7=-7/7 x=-a million

Ok.
-4 times x equals -4x and -4 +3 = -1 so you have -4x -1 then do the other side.
3 times x equals 3x then 3 times -1 equals -3.
Put it all together. -4x-1=3x-3.
Solve for x.
-4x-1=3x-3
-3x -3x
After you have canceled -3x. you have -7x-1=-3
cancel -1. -3-1=-4
Now you have -7x=-4
Divide by -4. And you should get something.
Im pretty sure this is the way. Im not sure.
Hope this helps!

distribute the outside numbers:
-4x-12=3x-3
move the x's to one side and the numbers to the other
-9=7x
divide both sides by seven
-9/7=x
For the other problem, make sure to add like terms

expand -4(x+3)=3(x-1)
-4x-12=3x-3
-7x-12=-3
-7x=9
7x=-9
x=-9/7 or 1 2/7

-4(x+3)=3(x-1)
-4x-12=3x-3
-7x-12=-3
-7x=9
x=9/-7
5x+14-2x=9-(4x+2)
3x+14=-4x+7
7x+14=7
7x=-7
x=-1
