Answer:
x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
First, write the expression and distribute.
-2(2x+11)=5x+14
-4x-22=5x+14
Add one of the variables to the other side (it makes solving a lot easier). I'll add 4x to both sides because it won't result in a negative x.
-4x-22=5x+14
<u>+4x +4x</u>
-22=9x+14
Now, subtract 14 on both sides.
-22=9x+14
<u>-14 -14</u>
-36=9x
Divide both sides by 9.
-36=9x
<u>/9 /9</u>
-4=x or x=-4 (they both mean the same thing)
Have a wonderful day! I hope this helped :3

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
k = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Fill in the given point values and solve for k.
y = (1/2)x + k
1 = (1/2)(-2) +k . . . . . . for x = -2, y = 1
1 = -1 +k . . . . simplify; next, add 1
2 = k
