Answer:
2x - 2 = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the amount of hats Fran has, if Elena has -2 hats, then this can be shown by x - 2
So then
x + x - 2 = 14
2x - 2 = 14
You haven't asked this but to find the amount of hats they have, move the -2 over to the other side making it a +2:
2x = 14 + 2
2x = 16
x = 8
So Fran has 8 hats and Elena has 6 hats.
