so first we have to find out what the bottom number is so
8x+14 subsitute 8 for x 8(8)+14 64+14 78
so 156/78 an easy way to do this is to factor it out and find the 'ones' like 4/8=1/2 times 4/4 (4/4=1 and can be canceled out) =times 156=2 2 3 13 78=2 3 13
so (2 2 3 13)/(2 3 13) 2/1 times (2 3 13)/(2 3 13) we can cross out the (2 3*13) and get 2 as the answer
8 x + 14 156 = ∣ s u b s t i t u t e x = 8 64 + 14 156 = 78 156 = 2 S o l u t i o n i s 2.
When substituting x = 8 into the expression 8 x + 14 156 , we find that it simplifies to 2 . Therefore, the final answer is 2.
