Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: -14 to -14

Explanation

The noninverting input is grounded, so the inverting node is virtual ground. Sum input currents: 2/5000+2/4000+1/2000=0.0014 A. Feedback gives Vout=−10000×0.0014=−14 V. This lies inside the supply rails and does not require clipping.
