Answer: Hi!
Okay. So this equation we will solve using something called the distributive property. We use the distributive property to multiply the terms inside the parentheses (x and -2) by the term outside and in front of the parentheses (4). First, we would multiply 4 * x, which is 4x. Then, we would multiply 4 * -2, which is -8. Out equation now looks like this:
4x - 8 = 14
Our goal is to isolate the x, so now we'll use inverse operations to remove the -8 from the equation. The inverse operation for subtraction is addition, so we would add 8 to both sides:
4x - 8 = 14
+ 8 + 8
The eights cancel out, so we're left with this equation:
4x = 22
Last step! We're almost done. All we have to do now is divide 4 on both sides; in the term 4x, 4 is being multiplied by x, so the inverse operation would be division.
4x ÷ 4 = x
22 ÷ 4 = 5.5
Our equation now looks like this:
x = 5.5
So, 5.5 is equal to x! This would be your answer!
Hope this helps!

Answer:
( a+b) (a-b)
x^2 - 50
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for difference of squares is
a^2 - b^2 = ( a+b) (a-b)
121x^2 -144 = (11x)^2 - 12^2 so this is the difference of squares
x^2 - 16y^2 = (x)^2 - (4y)^2 so this is the difference of squares
9x^2 -64 = (3x)^2-8^2 so this is the difference of squares
x^2 - 50 = (x)^2 - 2*(5)^2 this is not the difference of squares
Answer:
x + 10 = x
Has no solution because when you simplify it, you get
10 = 0 which is a false statement
2x + 4 = 2x
Has no solution
Because if reduces to 4 = 0
