Obviously this will be a negative number
-2 - 14 = 5x - 3x
-16 = 2x
x = %28-16%29%2F2
x = -8 is the number

Check solution in the original statement: x=-8
3(-8) - 2 = 5(-8) + 14
-24 - 2 = -40 + 14
-26 = -26
That is fractional, it can not be represented as a whole number, though it can be represented as an improper or mixed fraction because it is a rational number.
629/100 or 6+29/100
Answer:
length is 3 and width is 8

Answer:
y = ⅔x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To write the equation, find the slope (m), to enable you write the equation of the line in point-slope form given a point, (-3, -7) that the line passes through.
Since the line is parallel to 2x - 3y = 24,, it would have the same slope (m) value.
Rewrite 2x - 3y = 24 in slope-intercept form.
Thus:
2x - 3y = 24
-3y = -2x + 24
y = ⅔x - 12
The slope of 2x - 3y = 24 is ⅔. Therefore, the line that is parallel to 2x - 3y = 24 is also ⅔.
To write the equation of the line, substitute (a, b) = (-3, -7) and m = ⅔ into y - b = m(x - a)
Thus:
y - (-7) = ⅔(x - (-3))
y + 7 = ⅔(x + 3)
y + 7 = ⅔x + 2
y = ⅔x + 2 - 7
y = ⅔x - 5
