Answer:

a = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x-3)=5x+2

distribute the 4 to what is inside the parenthesis by multiplying

4x-12=5x+2

add 12 to both sides

4x=5x+14

subtract 5x from both sides

-x= 14

x= -14

therefore the answer is A. i hope this explanation helps and if you have any questions feel free to ask!
