We can solve this question using matching operations
Given:
Quantity A: y
Quantity B: 14
Since we're told that y = 7x – 14, we can replace Quantity A to get:
Quantity A: 7x – 14
Quantity B: 14
Add 14 to both quantities to get:
Quantity A: 7x
Quantity B: 28
Divide both quantities by 7 to get:
Quantity A: x
Quantity B: 4
Since we are told that x > 4, the correct answer must be A

We can also just plug 4 for x.
So y=7(4) –14 = 14
Given that x > 4 , A > 14 = B
So y=7(4) –14 = 14
Given that x > 4 , A > 14 = B
