Answer:

C. 14 is the answer

Explanation:

1. Write the question.

17 - 2x = -11

2. Subtract 17 from both sides

-17 -17

- 2x = -28

3. Negatives cancel

2x = 28

4. Divide both sides by 2

/2 /2

x = 14

5. Check the answer, write the equation.

17 - 2x = -11

6. Substitute x with the value

17 - 2(14) = -11

17 - 28 = -11

-11 = -11

The answer is correct!

So, 14 is the answer

Hope this helped,
