Given the equation 5 + x - 14 = x - 7. part a. solve the equation 5 + x - 14 = x - 7. in your final answer, be sure to state the solution and include all of your work. part b. use the values x = -2, 0, 3 to prove your solution to the equation 5 + x - 14 = x - 7 . in your final answer, include all of your calculations.

Hey katheryn part a solve 5 + x - 14 = x - 7 x + 9 = x - 7 subtract x on both sides x + 9 - x = x - 7 - x -9 = -7 add 9 on both sides-9 + 9 = -7 + 9 0 = 2 thus, there are no solutionspart b, we need to use these values x = -2, x = 0 and x = 3. so we gonna go to the equation and replace x by -2, then x by 0 and so 5 + x - 14 = x - 7 for x = -2 5 + (-2) - 14 = -2 - 7 5 - 2 - 14 = -9 -11 = -9 aren't equal! 5 + x - 14 = x - 7 for x = 05 + 0 - 14 = 0 - 7 -9 = -7 not equal! 5 + x - 14 = x - 7 for x = 35 + 3 - 14 = 3 - 7 -6 = -4 not equal! this is why the equation has no solution. let me know if you have any questions. as always, it is my pleasure to students like you!

Ibelieve your answer would be 8.

It would be the second one because it passes the vertical line test
