Answer:

[tex]x = - \frac{2}{13} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify to:

[tex] \frac{2(x - 2)}{7} [/tex]

Multiply both sides by 7

2(x-2)=28x

Divide both sides by 2

x-2=14x

Subtract x from both sides

2=14x-x

Simplify 14x-x to 13x

2=13x

Divide both sides by 13

[tex] - \frac{2}{13} = x[/tex]

Answer:

[tex] x = - \frac{ 2}{13} [/tex]
