To solve the equation \(-7x = 14\) for \(x\), you should divide both sides of the equation by \(-7\).
Here are the steps:
1. Start with the equation:
\[
-7x = 14
\]
2. Divide both sides by \(-7\):
\[
x = \frac{14}{-7}
\]
3. Calculate:
\[
x = -2
\]
So, to solve for \(x\), you should divide both sides by \(-7\). The solution for \(x\) is \(-2\).
