Please show your work and you are supposed to solve for x. And - this means minus

Answer 1

Answer:

as both equations are true and equal hence they are nullifying the equation or statement

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(7 - 4x) = 1/2 (4 + 16x) - 16

-14 + 8x = 4/2 + 16x/2 -16

-14 + 8x = 2 + 8x -16

16 - 14 = 2

2 = 2
