1. To find the $$ x $$-intercept, set $$ y = 0 $$ in the equation:
   $$
   14x + 11(0) = -20
   $$

2. This simplifies to:
   $$
   14x = -20
   $$

3. Solve for $$ x $$ by dividing both sides by 14:
   $$
   x = \frac{-20}{14}
   $$

4. Simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
   $$
   x = \frac{-10}{7}
   $$

The $$ x $$-intercept is $$\frac{-10}{7}$$.
The $$ x $$-intercept is $$-\frac{10}{7}$$.
