What value of q makes the statement true? –(q+14) = –3+(–14)
a. –17
b. –3
c. 3
d. 17

-(q + 14) = -3 +(-14)

First, simplify the brackets. / Your problem should look like: -q - 14 = -3 + -14
Second, cancel -14 on both sides. / Your problem should look like: -q = -3
Third, multiply both sides by -1. / Your problem should look like: q = 3

 q = 3 (C)
