Set up an algebraic equation.
4x - 14 = 6
Add '14' to both sides
4x = 20
Divide both sides by '4'
x = 5 The answer!!!!!
Remember for an equals(=), whatever you do to one side (+.-.x./), you must do to the other,(+-x/) in order to preserve equality. Its like keeping an old fashioned weigh scales in balance.

14-4x6=
six less than fourteen times a number
X+14 ≤ 3x
fourteen less than three fourths of a number is negative eight find the number
