Answer:

NOO!

Explanation:


\tt -7(x+5)=-14

First ,let's move all terms to the left:


\tt -7(x+5)-(-14)=0

Add all numbers together, and all variables


\tt -7(x+5)+14=0

Multiply parentheses:-


\tt -7x-35+14=0

Add all numbers/variables together:


\tt -7x-21=0

Now, move all terms containing x to the left, and all other terms to the right:


\tt -7x=21

Divide both sides by -7:-


\tt \cfrac{-7x}{-7}=\cfrac{21}{-7}


\tt x=-3

Nope, 10 isn't a solution to -7(x+5)=-14.
