Step-by-step explanation: We are given the equation <em>b = -14</em> and told to, given this information, evaluate <em>b + 4 = ?</em> and find <em>?.</em> Given b = -14 we can plug in <em>-14</em> for <em>b</em> in <em>b + 4 = ?</em>. This gives us <em>-14 + 4 = ?.</em> Adding this up gives us the answer of -10. Hope that this makes sense and helps, and good afternoon to you!
