To solve the equation 5(x-2) + 3 = 14, follow these steps:
1. Distribute the 5 across the parentheses: 5x - 10 + 3 = 14.
2. Combine like terms: 5x - 7 = 14.
3. Add 7 to both sides of the equation: 5x = 21.
4. Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x: x = 21/5 or x = 4.2.
Therefore, the solution to the equation 5(x-2) + 3 = 14 is x = 4.2.
