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.

Need the graph to answer this.

So the first thing we do is to multiply the top equation by 3. the reason i want to do this is i notice there will be a 6y on both equations and can possibly add/subtract them. so we get 6y = -3x + 27. adding that and the second equation we get 6x = 27-15 which is 12. divide by 6 and we get 2. ∴ x = 2. substituting 2 into the first equation we get 2y = -2 + 9 which is 7. divide by 2 and we get 7/2. ∴ y = 7/2, x = 2.
