Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Equation

-2x = 34

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Divide -2 on both sides:                    x = -17

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

  1. Substitute in x:                    -2(-17) = 34
  2. Multiply:                               34 = 34

Here we see that 34 does indeed equal 34.

∴ x = -17 is the solution of the equation.
