Question

If 7x + 4 = -19 + 5x, then 2x – 14 equals
A-23
B 23
C-37
D-14​

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the question,

7x+4 = -19 + 5x

Now we add 19 to both sides,

7x + 4 + 19 = -19 + 19 + 5x

7x + 23 = 5x

Now we subtract 7x from both sides,

23 = -2x

We divide -2 from both sides,

x = -23/2

Now we plug this in into 2x - 14,

2(-23/2) - 14 = -23-14 = -37

Our answer is C
