let x = \"a number
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Just write an equation for what it says:
\n" ); document.write( "\"Four times the difference of a number and one is equal to six times the sum of the number and three.\"
\n" ); document.write( "4(x-1) = 6(x+3)
\n" ); document.write( "4x - 4 = 6x + 18
\n" ); document.write( "4x - 6x = 18 + 4
\n" ); document.write( "-2x = 22
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"22%2F%28-2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = -11
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "See if that's true!
\n" ); document.write( "4(-11-1) = 6(-11 + 3)
\n" ); document.write( "4(-12) = 6(-8), it is\r
