Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

7x + 10 = 1/3(12x - 3) + 14x

Step 2: Solve for x

• Distribute 1/3:               7x + 10 = 4x - 1 + 14x
• Combine like terms:     7x + 10 = 18x - 1
• Subtract 7x on both sides:   0 = 11x - 1
• Add 1 on both sides:             11 = 11x
• Divide 11 on both sides:         1 = x
• Rewrite:                                  x = 1
