If x is a real number such that 22x+3=14 , find 2x. Thank you!

Solve for x over the real numbers:
2^(2 x + 3) = 14

Take the logarithm base 2 of both sides:
2 x + 3 = log(14)/log(2)

Subtract 3 from both sides:
2 x = log(14)/log(2) - 3

Divide both sides by 2:
 
x = log(14)/(2 log(2)) - 3/2 ≈0.403677
