To determine which of the given solutions would make the equation true, you can substitute each value of x into the equation and see if the resulting equation holds true.
Substituting x = 14:
36 - 22 = 2(14)
14 = 28
This equation is not true.
Substituting x = 7:
36 - 22 = 2(7)
14 = 14
This equation is true.
Substituting x = 29:
36 - 22 = 2(29)
14 = 58
This equation is not true.
Substituting x = 12:
36 - 22 = 2(12)
14 = 24
This equation is not true.
Therefore, the only solution that makes the equation true is x = 7.
