Answer:

x = - 6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute 5 (x - 4) first --> 5x - 20

Combine like-terms: 5x - 20 + 2x = 14 --> 7x - 20 = 14

Subtract 20 on both sides: 7x = -6

Divide both sides by 7: x = -6/7

It should be D: 35. 14 + 6 = 20. I just multiplied that by two, which equals 40. That means there are 2 sets of 14 and 2 sets of 6. Since there is 10 leftover, I divided both by 2. 7 + 3 = 10. 14 x 2 = 28 + 7 = 35
