The correct answer is B. Because if you do the parenthesis first then, you'd get 12-14 which equals up to 2. You have to switch around the 14 and 12 in order for it to make sense otherwise you'd get 6 but as a negative. Hope this helps!

Answer:

Option C - [tex]2(x-3)=22[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : If x = 14, which equation is true?

Solution :

To get the solution we have to substitute the value of x in all equation if they equate then it is true.

A) [tex]3(20-x)=44[/tex]

[tex]3(20-14)=44[/tex]

[tex]3(6)=44[/tex]

[tex]18\neq44[/tex]

Not true.

B) [tex]3(12-x)=6[/tex]

[tex]3(12-14)=6[/tex]

[tex]3(-2)=6[/tex]

[tex]-6\neq6[/tex]

Not true.

C) [tex]2(x-3)=22[/tex]

[tex]2(14-3)=22[/tex]

[tex]2(11)=22[/tex]

[tex]22=22[/tex]

True.

D) [tex]2x-3=22[/tex]

[tex]2(14)-3=22[/tex]

[tex]28-3=22[/tex]

[tex]25\neq22[/tex]

Not true.

Therefore, Option C is correct.
