Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for 2x+14=8

Subtract 14 on both sides: 2x= 8-14

2x = -6

Divide by 2: x = -3

-3 = -3

Answer:

They are equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+14 = 8

Lets solve for x

Subtract 14 from each side

2x+14-14 = 8-14

2x = -6

Divide by 2

2x/2 = -6/2

x = -3

They are the same
