Answer:

<h2>Only one solution</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution,

- 6(x + 7) =  - 4x - 2

Distribute -6 through the parentheses

- 6x - 42 =  - 4x - 2

Move variable to L.H.S and change its sign

- 6x + 4x  - 42 =  - 2

Move constant to R.H.S and change its sign

- 6x + 4x =  - 2 + 42

Collect like terms

- 2x  =  - 2 + 42

Calculate the sum

- 2 x = 40

Divide both sides of the equation by - 2

\frac{ - 2x}{ - 2}  =  \frac{40}{ - 2}

Calculate

x =  - 20

Hope this helps..

Good luck on your assignment..
