Answer 2

Answer:

B. x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve for x. To do this, we need to get x by itself. To get x by itself, preform the opposite of what is being done to the equation

2-4x=14

Subtract 2 from both sides, since 2 is being added.

2-2 -4x=14-2

-4x=12

Divide both sides by -4 since -4 is being multiplied

-4x/-4=12/-4

x= -3

So, choice B is correct
