To solve 2(7 + 3x) = 3x + 8 from a graph, find the value of x where:
A) y = 2(7 + 3x) intersects y = -4.
B) y = 2(7 + 3x) intersects the horizontal axis.
C) y = 3x + 8 intersects the horizontal axis.
D) y = 14 + 6x intersects y = 3x + 8.
E) y = 3x + 8 intersects y = -4.

To solve the equation 2(7 + 3x) = 3x + 8, we need to find the value of x where the two expressions are equal. This is represented graphically where the graph of y = 14 + 6x (which is the same as y = 2(7 + 3x) after simplification) intersects the graph of y = 3x + 8.
