A. 4
B. 2
C.6
D.11

Answer 1

x is four because 10 plus 4 is fourteen

Answer 2

Hi There!

The answer to your problem is A) 4

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

Add '-14' to each side of the equation.

`14 + -14 + -1x = 10 + -14`

Combine like terms: 14 + -14 = 0

`0 + -1x = 10 + -14`

`-1x = 10 + -14`

Combine like terms: 10 + -14 = -4

`-1x = -4`

Get your answer

`x = 4`

Hope This Helps!
