Let the number be x: 8x-14 = 10 Add 14 to both sides: 8x = 24 Divide both sides by 8 to find the value of x: x = 3
x - 6
-60-14=-46

Let number be x Then x - (-14) = 20 or x + 14 = 20 or x = 20 -14 or x = 6 Verification: 6 - (-14) = 6 + 14 = 20
Let the number be x: 8x-14 = 10 Add 14 to both sides: 8x = 24 Divide both sides by 8 to find the value of x: x = 3
The sum of x and y decreased by their product is (x + y)- xy.
x - 6
-60-14=-46

(8 - 3) x (4 - 3) = 5 x 1 = 5
It is a 75% decrease.
