Question

Evaluate the equation -4x = 14
A. x = 10
B. x = 7/2
C. x = -7/2
D. x = -10​

Answer 1

`\huge\boxed{\sf{\displaystyle-(7)/(2) }}`

Explanation:

Hello.

Divide both sides by -4 in order to isolate the variable (x):

-4x=14

`(14)/(-4)}`

This fraction can be reduced:

`(7)/(-2)`

or

`-(7)/(2)`

I hope it helps.

Have a great day.

Answer 2

The choice C. x = -7/2

Explanation:

`- 4x = 14 \\ \\ x = (14)/( - 4) \\ \\ x = - (14 / 2)/(4 / 2) \\ \\ x = - (7)/(2)`
