Let

d-------> the number

we know that

The equation that represent the situation is

[tex]\frac{5+d}{-2} =14[/tex]

Solve for d

Multiply by [tex]-2[/tex] both sides

[tex]5+d=14*-2[/tex]

[tex]5+d=-28[/tex]

Subtract  [tex]5[/tex] both sides

[tex]5+d-5=-28-5[/tex]

[tex]d=-33[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

The equation is equal to [tex]\frac{5+d}{-2} =14[/tex]

The value of d is [tex]-33[/tex]
