Solve   6(X+3) - 2X = 14.                       
  =   Write original equation.
  =   Use distributive property.
  =   Combine like terms.
  =   Subtract 18 from each side.
  =   Simplify
  =   Divide each side by 4.
  =   Simplify
Solve   5 - (3X + 4) = 4.                
  =   Write original equation.
  =   Use distributive property.
  =   Combine like terms.
  =   Subtract 1 from each side.
  =   Divide each side by 3.
  =   Simplify
 
Solve   4X - 2 = 2(X - 8).                          
  =   Write original equation.
  =   Use distributive property.
  =   Subtract 2X from each side.
  =   Add 2 to each side.
  =   Divide each side by 2.
  =   Simplify
