no
My apologies for the incorrect response. Let's solve the equation again.
6 - 4x = -14
Adding 4x to both sides:
6 + 4x - 4x = -14 + 4x
Simplifying:
6 = -14 + 4x
Adding 14 to both sides:
6 + 14 = -14 + 14 + 4x
Simplifying:
20 = 4x
Now, divide both sides by 4:
20/4 = 4x/4
Simplifying:
5 = x
Therefore, x = 5.
6 - 4x = -14
Adding 4x to both sides:
6 + 4x - 4x = -14 + 4x
Simplifying:
6 = -14 + 4x
Adding 14 to both sides:
6 + 14 = -14 + 14 + 4x
Simplifying:
20 = 4x
Now, divide both sides by 4:
20/4 = 4x/4
Simplifying:
5 = x
Therefore, x = 5.
