Final answer:
Carina can solve the equation -4 - -x = -6 by adding 4 to both sides and then multiplying both sides by -1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Carina begins solving the equation -4 - -x = -6 by adding 4 to both sides. This cancels out the -4 on the left side, leaving us with -x = -2. To solve for x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by -1 to get x = 2. Therefore, the first statement 'x = -2' is true.
On the other hand, the equation cannot be solved for x using exactly one more step by multiplying both sides by - or dividing both sides by - as these operations would change the sign of x, resulting in incorrect solutions. Therefore, the statements 'The equation can be solved for x using exactly one more step by multiplying both sides by -' and 'The equation can be solved for x using exactly one more step by dividing both sides by -' are false.
