\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}

  • By substitution, justify that x = − 6 is a solution to x − 2 = − x − 14.

\large \boxed{\mathbb{ANSWER\: WITH\: EXPLANATION} \downarrow}

First, let's substitute the value of x as -6 in the equation.

\tt \: x - 2 =  - x - 14 \\  \dashrightarrow \: \tt \:  ( - 6) - 2 =  - ( - 6) - 14

Now, let's solve it.

\tt \: ( - 6 ) - 2 = - ( - 6 ) - 14

Subtract 2 from -6 to get -8.

\tt \: -8=-\left(-6\right)-14

The opposite of -6 is 6.

\tt \: -8=6-14

Subtract 14 from 6 to get -8.

\tt \: -8=-8

Compare -8 and -8. We can see that both the LHS & RHS are equal to each other. So, hence we proved that <u>x = − 6 is a solution of x − 2 = − x − 14.</u>
