Question

the sum of six times a number and four is equal to the diffrence of the number and eleven. find the number

Answer 1

6 * 4x = x - 11

We must solve for x.

Subtract x.

6 * 3x = -11

Divide by 6

3x = -1.83

Divide by 3

x = -0.61

I was confused by the part that says "a number and four"

I'm not sure if it meant x + 4, or 4x
