Respuesta :

The statements can be completed by using the following :

1) -2 is multiplied with (5x+8)

2)  transposing of numeral values and variable values

3) The numerical values are taken one side and added to each other

4) 30 is divided by -16

5) The numerator and denominator are cancelled to the lowest possible value

x= -15/8

Given:  -2(5x+8)=14+6x  

and steps for solving them have also been given

In the first step, -2 is multiplied with (5x+8) and we get

-10x -16 = 14 +6x

In step 2, transposing of numeral values and variable values is done and we get -16x - 16 = 14

In step 3,

The numerical values are taken one side and added to each other and we get -16x=30

In step 4, 30 is divided by -16

In step 5, they are cancelled to the lowest possible value and we get

x= -15/8
