        2                  
16 - 3*x  + 14*x = 5*x - 14
$$14 x + \left(16 - 3 x^{2}\right) = 5 x - 14$$
Detail solution
Move right part of the equation to
left part with negative sign.

The equation is transformed from
$$14 x + \left(16 - 3 x^{2}\right) = 5 x - 14$$
to
$$\left(14 - 5 x\right) + \left(14 x + \left(16 - 3 x^{2}\right)\right) = 0$$
This equation is of the form
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$x_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = -3$$
$$b = 9$$
$$c = 30$$
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(9)^2 - 4 * (-3) * (30) = 441

Because D > 0, then the equation has two roots.
x1 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

x2 = (-b - sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

or
$$x_{1} = -2$$
$$x_{2} = 5$$
Vieta's Theorem
rewrite the equation
$$14 x + \left(16 - 3 x^{2}\right) = 5 x - 14$$
of
$$a x^{2} + b x + c = 0$$
as reduced quadratic equation
$$x^{2} + \frac{b x}{a} + \frac{c}{a} = 0$$
$$x^{2} - 3 x - 10 = 0$$
$$p x + q + x^{2} = 0$$
where
$$p = \frac{b}{a}$$
$$p = -3$$
$$q = \frac{c}{a}$$
$$q = -10$$
Vieta Formulas
$$x_{1} + x_{2} = - p$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} = q$$
$$x_{1} + x_{2} = 3$$
$$x_{1} x_{2} = -10$$
