Answer:

Here's how you can complete the proof:

Statement 1: 3x - 4 = 14 (Given)

Reason 1: Given

Statement 2: 3x - 4 + 4 = 14 + 4

Reason 2: Adding 4 to both sides of the equation

Statement 3: 3x = 18

Reason 3: Simplifying by adding 4 to both sides

Statement 4: x = 6

Reason 4: Dividing both sides by 3

So, the completed proof is as follows:

3x - 4 = 14 (Given)

3x - 4 + 4 = 14 + 4 (Adding 4 to both sides of the equation)

3x = 18 (Simplifying by adding 4 to both sides)

x = 6 (Dividing both sides by 3)
