It does have a solution because

You would subtract 19 from both sides
Which would give you 4x=-6x-28
Then you would add 6x to both side
Which would give you 10x=-28
You would divide both sides by 10
Which would give you 10x/10=-28/10

The total comes out to x=-14/5

B no solution. Since it would be 10x=-28 and it would be a whole mess
