Karissa begins to solve the equation (x - 14) + 11 = x - (x - 4). Her work is correct and is shown below. (x - 14) + 11 = x - (x - 4) x - 7 + 11 = x - x + 4 x + 4 = - x + 4 When she subtracts 4 from both sides, 1/2x = - 1/2x results. What is the value of x

    x = 0

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since her work is correct, I'm assuming that 1/2x = - 1/2x is what you don't understand.

    To solve this equation, add - 1/2x to both sides and put 0 in its place. Now you have:

    (1) x = 0

    Divide both sides by 1.

    x = 0
