here are the steps i'd take. if anything is unclear, let me know and i can explain!

-2(x+12)=-x-14

let's open the parentheses on the left side

-2x-24=-x-14

and let's move variables to one side and numbers to the other.

-x=10

let's multiply each side by -1 to get positive x

x=-10

hope i helped! good luck.

Answer: if you want to know what x is then x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

−2(x+12)=−x−14

Use the distributive property to multiply −2 by x+12.

−2x−24=−x−14

Add x to both sides.

−2x−24+x=−14

Combine −2x and x to get −x.

−x−24=−14

Add 24 to both sides.

−x=−14+24

Add −14 and 24 to get 10.

−x=10

Multiply both sides by −1.

x=−10
