Hi!

The answer to your question would be x

Here's why:

The question is asking to find the variable.

A variable is a letter in a mathematical equation representing an unknown number.

Thus, x would be your variable

I hope this helps!

Have an amazing day/night!

God bless!

2 - 3x = 14

-3x = 14-2

-3x = 12

-3x / -3 = 12 / -3

x = -4
