The equation is v ![\"\"](\"http://c4anything.com/MathKey/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=c7a8c800d2df7d176b09fff75181eb8f.png\")
9 = 14.
According to additon property of equality: If a = b, then a + c = b + c.
\ v 9 + 9 = 14 + 9 (Add 9 to each sides)
v = 14 + 9 (Additive inverse property: 9 + 9 = 0)
v = 23 (Add: 14 + 9 = 23)

Check:
\To check the solution, substitute v = 23 in original equation.
\ v 9 = 14![\"\"](\"http://c4anything.com/MathKey/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=cf88eb4b75e2e087ff1d68b5148e102c.png\")
23 9 = 14
14 = 14 (Subtract: 239 = 14 )
The equation is true.
