Solution

The correct option is A x=5
Given, 7x14+143=13[7x1x2]5x3
Multiplying both sides by 12(LCM of 4, 3, 3, 2 and 3), we get
3(7x1)+4×14=4[7x1x2]4×5xor,21x3+56=28x2(1x)20xor,21x+53=8x2+2xor,21x+53=10x2
Transposing the terms,we get
21x10x=253or,11x=55x=5
Thus, the solution of the equation is x = -5.
