Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: 2x - 4 = -18

First, add 4 to both sides:

2x = -14

Finally, divide both sides by 2:

x = -7

Check (optional):

2(-7) - 4 = -18

-14 - 4 = -18

-18 = -18 so this is correct

If you're confused about any of these steps, just let me know and I'll try to clear it up for you! :)
