If 2x - 16x - 96 = 0, then:
-14x = 96
-7x = 48
x = -48/7
Given the wording of your question though, I would guess that you are actually looking for solutions to this equation:
2x2 - 16x -96 = 0
Which we can solve as follows:
2x2 - 16x - 96 = 0
x2 - 8x - 48 = 0
x2 - 12x + 4x - 48 = 0
x(x - 12) + 4(x - 12) = 0
(x + 4)(x - 12) = 0
So x can be equal to either -4 or 12
