Answer 1

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

• -4x + 2 = -14

This equation can be solved by:

1. Isolating the variable(s) and its coefficient(s) on one side of the equation.
2. Dividing both sides of the equation by the coefficient of "x" to isolate x.

Subtracting 2 both sides of the equation (according to step 1):

• ⇒ -4x + 2 = -14
• ⇒ -4x + 2 - 2 = -14 - 2
• ⇒ -4x = -16

Dividing -4 to both sides of the equation (according to step 2):

• ⇒ -4x = -16
• ⇒ -4x/-4 = -16/-4
• ⇒ x = 4

Therefore, Option D is correct.

Answer 2

Answer:

d) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for the value of x,

→ -4x + 2 = -14

→ -4x = -14 - 2

→ -4x = -16

→ x = -16/-4

→ [ x = 4 ] {option d}

Verification of the value of x,

→ -4x + 2 = -14

→ -4(4) + 2 = -14

→ -16 + 2 = -14

→ -14 = -14

→ [ LHS = RHS ]

Hence, the value of x is 4.
