Question 1125891

{{{Ten}}} more than {{{6}}} times a {{{number}}} is {{{4}}} {{{less}}} than {{{4}}} times a number

let number be {{{x}}}

{{{Ten}}} more than {{{6}}} times a {{{number}}} is:{{{6x+10}}}

is :=

{{{4}}} {{{less}}} than {{{4}}} times a number:{{{4x-4}}}

put it all together:

{{{6x+10=4x-4}}}.....solve for {{{x}}}


{{{6x-4x=-4-10}}}

{{{2x=-14}}}

{{{x=-14/2}}}

{{{x=-7}}}-> your number

check:

{{{6x+10=4x-4}}}
{{{6(-7)+10=4(-7)-4}}}
{{{-42+10=-28-4}}}
{{{-32=-32}}}
