She should have added 2 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 2.
2x -2 = 14
Add 2 to both sides:
2x = 16
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 8
Answer:
parallel:

perpendicular:

Step-by-step explanation:
original line:
-7x + 8y = 4
m = 7/8
parallel:
m = 7/8
L: 7x - 8y = k
(4, -4) -> L
28 + 32 = 60 = k
L: 7x - 8y = 60
perpendicular:
m = -8/7
L: -8x + 7y = k
(4, -4) -> L
-32 + 28 = -4 = k
L: -8x -7y = -4
=> 8x + 7y = 4
