Translate that sentence into an equation. "Twice x" means 2 times x, so 2x. "Plus 5" means 5 is added to the 2x. "Is the same as" means that 2x+5 equals something, and - 14 is the number it equals. So the equation would look like this: 2x+5=-14 Now this is a two-step equation. Subtract 5 on both sides. 2x=-19 Lastly, Divide by 2. x=-19/2 or - 9.5
