@jim_thompson5910 ya

Answer 4

if so, then let's check it

x/14 + 3 = -1

-64/14 + 3 = -1 ... plug in x = -64

-4.57142857 + 3 = -1

-1.57142857 = -1 ... which is FALSE

So x = -64 isn't the answer

Answer 5

-56 @jim_thompson5910

Answer 6

let's check that

x/14 + 3 = -1

-56/14 + 3 = -1 ... plug in x = -56

-4 + 3 = -1

-1 = -1 ... which is TRUE

So x = -56 is the answer
