The solution

You have entered [src]
4*(3*x + 5) - 14 = 2*(x - 7)
$$4 \cdot \left(3 x + 5\right) - 14 = 2 \left(x - 7\right)$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
4*(3*x+5)-14 = 2*(x-7)

Expand brackets in the left part
4*3*x+4*5-14 = 2*(x-7)

Expand brackets in the right part
4*3*x+4*5-14 = 2*x-2*7

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
6 + 12*x = 2*x-2*7

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$12 x = 2 x - 20$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$10 x = -20$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 10
x = -20 / (10)

We get the answer: x = -2
