Answer:

a and b

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:   7(3x - 2) = -4(6 - 5x)

Expand the brackets:

⇒ 21x - 14 = -24 + 20x  (therefore it is equivalent to d)

Subtract 20x from both sides:

⇒ x - 14 = -24 (therefore it is equivalent to c)

Add 14 to both sides:

⇒ x = -10 (therefore, it is NOT equivalent to a)

Add 10 to both sides:

⇒ x + 10 = 0 (therefore, it is NOT equivalent to b)
