1) distribute  2) subtract   3) add   4) divide by

Step-by-step explanation:

The original problem they don't show you is 5x + 8 = 14 + 6x

You can find that out by working Step 1 backwards

Step 1:  Distribute    -2(5x + 8) = 14 + 6x     -10x -16 = 14 + 6x

Step 2: Subtract  -10x - 16 = 14 + 6x     -16x - 16 = 14

Step 3: Add  -16x - 16 = 14     -16x = 30

Step 4: Divide by   -16x = 30     x = 30/-16
