Answer :

Given the equation :

[tex]\frac{x}{3}-14=-2[/tex]

Solve for x:

Multiply all terms by 3:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 3\cdot\frac{x}{3}-3\cdot14=-2\cdot3 \\ \\ x-42=-6 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Add 42 for both sides:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x-42+42=-6+42 \\ x=36 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, the answer is option D. x = 36
